Making Connections: Study Skills, Reading, and Writing

Ann Dillon's MAKING CONNECTIONS gives students integrated instruction on study, reading and writing skills-skills that are critical for students' success in college, but which are often not taught together. Dillon helps readers see the connections between these crucial skills by emphasizing practical applications and exercises throughout the text. Organized around thematic units, this essential book begins by introducing basic key elements of College Success. It then takes the reader into the thematic units (Parts 3 and 4) that show the connections between reading skills, study skills, and writing skills. This integration allows the student to apply these skills and study strategies to their college learning.
