How to Study Program 7th Edition by Ron Fry - Course Technology PTR

Learning how to study is learning how to learn. And that is, to me, the greatest gift you can ever give yourself.
 
 
Grade 7 Up?"Ace" is written in six chapters and presents information on test anxiety; time management; study techniques; and standardized, objective, and written test-taking techniques for adolescent and older students. Fry includes photocopyable charts to aid in organization and promotes other titles in his study series.
 
 
The information is generally clear, but the author's constant interjection of off-the-cuff comments and forced humor interfere with the focus and tend to be annoying. How to Study is more clearly written with less divergence. It contains a valuable chapter on the hook up and use of on-line services to gather information. Other chapters cover note-taking, attitude, time management, reading skills, and library-research techniques. 


Glossary of Legal Terms - VITS LanguageLink

The Glossary published by the Legal Interpreting Service in 1985 proved to be much sought after and successful. In response to requests from interpreters and legal practitioners, this updated, revised and enhanced Glossary has been developed and translated into 13 languages and published as a multilingual glossary.
 
 
This Glossary is by no means a substitute for the training, experience, and expertise of interpreters working in the legal area, it is intended as a professional resource, which will assist interpreters in their often complex and responsible tasks.
 
 
To this end, the Glossary lists legal terminology used by people concerned with the development of our laws and their application to the community in a variety of contexts. The terms and definitions contained in this Glossary have been developed in consultation with representatives from various legal and quasi-legal sectors.

Gaming for Classroom-Based Learning Digital Role Playing as a Motivator of Study

In order to effectively use games in the classroom, teachers and parents need to agree on games positive functions toward students learning, decide and select good educational games relevant to content and tasks in the classroom, and disseminate their acquired knowledge into the teaching field. 
 
 
As part of an international dialogue between researchers in educational technology, Gaming for Classroom-Based Learning: Digital Role Playing as a Motivator of Study investigates whether games can motivate students to learn and improve their knowledge and skills. This collection of research aims to inform classroom and pre-service teachers of the potential of games for improving teaching and learning.

Errors in English Composition by J C Nesfield

This book is called "Errors in English Composition," because it chiefly consists of examples in which some error in Grammar, Construction, or Order occurs. The sentences, which the student is asked to "correct, improve, or justify," have been taken both from literature and from journalism, mainly, however, from the latter, and mainly from very recent journalism.
 
 
They are likely, therefore, to show the kinds of inaccuracies which (if my views on such matters are sound) are most prevalent at the present day, and against which a writer who desires to be accurate has most need to be on his guard.
