Professional, loved the images, layout and text combinations. I enjoyed it immensely and would certainly have loved this book for my undergraduate BA.
Overall, the chapter effectively navigates the nuances of university culture in the initial weeks. Its strengths lie in practical advice and insights into campus life. The practical advice is immensely useful for both incoming and current students.
As a companion skills text, this book offers readers unique ways to critically reflect on their current skill level, set themselves objectives, and test and self-evaluate each new skill area interactively. (...) There is a stimulating blend of text with imagery and visuals, combined with online interactive skills development tasks, which is a novel feature of this text, taking it to the realms of being a learning device, rather than simply a book.
I absolutely loved the book - it highlighted some really key points and I even learned a thing or two myself! I ended up shipping my younger sister off to uni with it (she’s just started her business degree) and she’s always called on the book a few times :)
Gives students good insight into academic writing, especially students who ahve not written a nursing academic assignment previously.
useful handbook to accompany unit on study skills
a clear guide for students new to academia
This is a useful guide for students who have not yet mastered their command of academic writing.
A great handbook for HE students
This is such a general book that it is hard to put on one reading list. I like the way it is broken up into easily readable and manageable sections, which are good for referring to. The titles of each section make it very clear what the section is about. It is especially good for both the Year 1 UG students and the MA students who have come from abroad. I will recommend this book to the library and to both UG and PGT courses in the School.
Fantastic study skills book for our Foundation Year students.
