For course in Freshman Orientation/Student Success. This comprehensive, hands-on guide to the total college experience goes beyond study skills, test taking, and time management to help students 1) manage the transition into college, assess their strengths and weaknesses, get a larger perspective on what they can learn, and clarify their purposes; 2) move through college by understanding what we know about learning, maximizing their learning from courses and out-of-class experiences, managing interpersonal relationships, and using good study skills; and 3) plan their transition to life after college, reviewing what they are taking with them and anticipating various life span challenges.
