This book intends to prepare faculty who teach students new to the university to help create a positive academic experience for both first-time students and students who transfer in.

As teachers, we often cite that one of our most important course objectives is teaching our students to 鈥渓earn how to learn鈥� (Fink, 37). However, there are different kinds of goals we associate with learning how to learn: learning basic academic skills, learning to inquire and construct knowledge, and learning how to be a self-directed learner. In this chapter, we describe each of these distinct goals and offer a number of suggestions for accomplishing each of them.

Integrating Cognitive Science with Innovative Teaching in Stem Disciplines
Chapter 01: 

Robert A. Bjork and Veronica X. Yan

Increasingly, learning is happening outside of formal classroom instruction.  As a consequence, learners need to make multiple decisions, such as what to study, when to study, and how to study, and computer-based technologies offer multiple options and opportunities for how to manage one's own learning.  Knowing how to learn effectively has never been more important, not only during the years of schooling, but across one's lifetime-as careers change, new job skills are required, and hobbies and interests develop and change.  Recent research suggests, however, that we are often prone to both mis-assessing and mis-managing our own learning.  In this chapter we summarize the evidence that intuitions and standard practices are often unreliable guides to optimizing one's learning and that there exists the potential for learners and instructors alike to make self-regulated and teacher-regulated learning more efficient and effective.
