With increased attention paid to diversity, the application of
skills to future careers, and even more relatable research, the
third edition of FOCUS ON COLLEGE SUCCESS recognizes the varied
experiences of today's students and guides them to be more
motivated and focused. The research-based approach builds a solid
foundation allowing students see the relevancy of this course to
their lives. By helping students develop realistic expectations of
what it takes to learn, FOCUS motivates and encourages students
with direct applications and immediate results. Written by
Constance Staley, one of the best-known names in the field of
motivation, this text increases the credibility of the college
success course by providing tools that help students succeed and
thereby improve institutional retention rates. Starting with the
use of the FOCUS Challenge Cases that introduce each chapter, FOCUS
ON COLLEGE SUCCESS strikes a personal and informal conversation
with readers--directly connecting with them and drawing them into
text discussions. In a recent survey of students using FOCUS, 97 %
would recommend that their professor use this book again with next
year's first year students. Many students today are
over-optionalized and over-obligated. FOCUS ON COLLEGE SUCCESS
addresses those issues head-on, creating teachable moments--and
concrete results--in every class period.
