"This text has always met the needs of our community college students. While the text can be used in any post-secondary setting, its total focus on STUDY SKILLS is what has always sold me on the text. Wong has consistently improved her approach to this topic, and the exercises she has included really provide good practice for students. Her textbook layout appeals to students with different learning styles. In addition, no student feels left out (e.g. traditional students vs. non-traditional students, native speakers vs. non-native speakers)."- Karen Fenske, Kishwaukee College

"I believe that some of my favorite features of the book include the use of mapping to get the student focused on the objectives and their relationships; room to write ideas and thoughts as they read; then the breaks of questions, quizzes and exercises to break up their reading. This is important because (including me) students will breeze through text without stopping to think about what they are reading and by having these 'breaks' the student's eyes are drawn to these and may cause them to read that at least and then go back to read if needed."- Valerie Cunningham, Collin College
