Prepare for college success with Thinking Critically in College, a guide for mastering critical thinking skills.

Description

Thinking Critically in College is not just another college prep book; it is your essential guide to thriving in the academic world. Almost all first-year college students quickly realize that the transition from high school to college is significant, especially when it comes to the academic rigor of college courses. Unlike high school, where students often focus on memorization, college demands a deeper level of engagement with the material. Professors expect students to absorb, analyze, and synthesize information, consider various perspectives, evaluate conflicting evidence, and apply their knowledge in new contexts.

In this comprehensive handbook, Louis E. Newman, who brings decades of experience as a professor at Carleton College and as Dean of Academic Advising and Associate Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education at Stanford, offers invaluable insights and guidance that will prepare you not only for college but also for life after graduation. The book is unique among college preparation resources as it integrates the latest research in learning with practical advice.

Thinking Critically in College spells out the essential critical thinking skills necessary for academic success. It does not just tell you what you need to know; it shows you how to tackle real college assignments. Throughout the book, you will find engaging exercises designed to reinforce your understanding and application of these critical skills.

Written in a personal and engaging style, this handbook makes complex concepts accessible. It provides clear explanations of how to meet the expectations of your professors, making it an essential resource regardless of your academic background. Whether you are a high school graduate preparing to enter college or someone looking to refresh your thinking skills, this book is tailored for you.
