Book Synopsis The Student's Advantage - Parents' Guide by : Wyne Ince
Download or read book The Student's Advantage - Parents' Guide written by Wyne Ince and published by Wyne Ince. This book was released on 2012-06-21 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dear Parent: This guide will explain what you can expect from the book, how it is structured, and the educational principles on which it is based. It will also walk you through the book’s major components and how to implement them. As the parent, you will need to provide certain things for your teen or preteen to gain the book’s full value. The Parent’s Role in Fostering Good Studentship Every conscientious parent wants their child to do well in school, but not all parents know how to make that happen. They tell their child to study hard and to take school seriously, but that usually isn’t enough. They then may resort to nagging, scolding, or threatening, which only makes things worse. Many loving parents had trouble in school themselves and really don’t know the solution to their child’s problems. Kids need three things to turn around a losing streak in the classroom: 1) They need to be motivated, to be given reasons why they should study and work hard. 2) They need to be shown that they can be successful if they do this. 3) And they need to be shown how to do it: what studying and working hard in school actually means. This book will address all three issues. But by itself, it is only a book, a bunch of information buried between two pieces of cardboard. To get the knowledge out of the book and into the head and heart of your student, a facilitator is needed. That facilitator is you. (Or it could be another adult whom your child respects acting in the role of a mentor. The Student’s Advantage: Your Guide to Getting the Most out of School and Creating a Fabulous Future will empower students who have been struggling in middle and high school to maximize their capabilities and will inspire good students to transform themselves into great students. All too often students do not really understand why they need to learn. With US academic performance in decline, particularly in science and math, the time has come to tackle the question of why students are not doing better, and to emphasize to students the why of learning, making clear to them how education will affect their adult lives. The Student's Advantage: Your Guide to Getting the Most out of School and Creating a Fabulous Future is a practical guide that will motivate middle and high school students by providing a vital understanding of the keys to succeeding in school, the importance of investigating potential career interests, and the need to take an active role in preparing for the years ahead. The Student's Advantage demonstrates through dramatic examples the indisputable power of motivation and commitment. The Student's Advantage is not exclusively a goal-setting workbook, merely a manual of study habits, or just a career-search guidebook. It draws together all of these crucial areas in a highly interactive and engaging manner, yet remains a straightforward reference that will inspire and motivate. The Student's Advantage aims to give students momentum on the road to academic success. Each comprehensive chapter is easily referenced, with the Student’s Success Roadmap offering corresponding exercises. Practical devices like the Seven Learning Secrets and overviews of various careers are presented in a candid and accessible fashion. Thanks.
