Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis:

Finally, a textbook that actually uses reading and critical thinking strategies rather than just talking about them. This new, compelling fifth edition of "Cornerstone: Discovering Your Potential, Learning Actively and Living Well"reflects a deeper focus on self-responsibility and active learning. It effectively utilizes SQ3R throughout, underscoring its importance to student success. Also new to this edition is the implementation of Bloom's Taxonomy through a feature titled "Knowledge in Bloom." This chapter-end activity helps students apply the information from each chapter by prompting them to reflect and respond to questions from each level of Bloom's. Two new chapters on money and debt management and self-engagement meet students where they are. A totally revised and updated chapter on change and goal setting highlights the relationships between realistic goals and ushering positive change into one's life. Exciting Additional Revisions include:
  • The BIG WHY!! (Author Perspective) and The BIG WHY (Student Perspective) - offers advice from the authors AND former students as to "WHY" the chapter is important to the student's success, knowledge, college survival, and overall well-being.
  • From Ordinary to Extraordinary: Real Stories of Personal Triumph - individual, brief biographies of ordinary Americans who faced and overcame huge obstacles and adversity going on to reach goals and dreams.
  • Where are You.... AT THIS MOMENT? - popular feature's scoring and interpretation has been significantly revised and simplified.
  • The extraordinary supplemental resource package has been expanded to better fit faculty and student needs!
