This guidebook attempts to move theory into application by sharing ways that teachers fuse the teaching of learning processes with the teaching of course content. Chapters focus on: (1) motivating students to learn; (2) concentration and learning to focus; (3) time management; (4) remembering; (5) technical vocabulary; (6) streamlining study; (7) mapping ideas; (8) note-taking; (9) test-taking; (10) research papers; (11) strategic reading; (12) application to content areas; and (13) total school programs and results. Each chapter presents a brief introduction to its main concepts, lists performance objectives for actitivies, describes applicable learning experiences, suggests assessment procedures, and lists multimedia resources. Appended are addresses of resource producers, selected answers to reproduction pages, reproduction pages containing various questions and learning activities, and feedback forms. (CB)
