Lorin Letendre said MTDL is Highly Useful. Making the Dean's List is chock full of helpful and informative techniques, methods, and exercises to guide the high school or college student through foundational skills that every student needs to succeed and earn good grades.
I like the concept of Peer Coaches. The approach makes content accessible for the reader. "I like the way the text approaches the student on the student's level rather than talking down to students. They make the approach to learning more effective.""I was most impressed by the Peer Coach narrative approach- it elicits identification and empathy from the reader, personalizing key points while weaving in the content that is derived from research. Very effective and very well done!"
