Synopsis "Focus on College Success"
The fifth edition of FOCUS ON COLLEGE SUCCESS recognizes the varied experiences of today's students and guides them to be more mindful, motivated, productive, and focused. The text's research-based approach builds a solid foundation, helping students to see the relevance of this course. Increased attention is given to diversity, mindfulness, resilience, grit, financial literacy, technology, and productivity, college-related "life hacks," alternative presentation e-tools, and the newest strategies in career planning. Many students today are distracted, over-optionalized, and over-obligated. FOCUS ON COLLEGE SUCCESS addresses these issues head-on, creating teachable moments � and concrete results � in every face-to-face or online learning experience. New for 2021: Empower your students to connect the dots between what they�re learning now and their current or future careers with �How Transferable Are Your Skills?� - a new MindTap activity that challenges students to identify how their personal and academic experiences can help them become career-ready.
