 Academic Readiness
Dartmouth College has produced a number of instructional videos focused on academic readiness. Teachers
and counselors will likely find the time management, note taking and study skills programs to be quite useful in working with
students. These videos have not been experimentally evaluated in a stand-alone format; however, they do have a credible basis
in the professional literature. Their effectiveness would likely be improved by adding supporting materials and structured
assignments. VCC researchers have plans to develop enhanced curricula. Meanwhile, this Dartmouth video series appears to be
a good beginning.
Ohio University offers a study skills training program called Study Tips.
Arizona State University's Just Think It! program enhances academic achievement motiviation via attribution retraining.
