Cornerstone: Your Foundation For Discovering Your Potential, Learning Actively and Living Well

by Robert M. Sherfield, Rhonda J. Montgomery, Patricia G. Moody

Finally, a textbook that actually uses reading and critical thinking strategies rather than just talking about them. This new, compelling fifth edition of Discovering Your Potential, Learning Actively and Living Well reflects a deeper focus on self-responsibility and active learning. It effectively utilizes SQ3R throughout, underscoring its importance to student success. Also new to this edition is the implementation of Bloom’s Taxonomy through a feature titled Knowledge in Bloom . This chapter-end activity helps students apply the information from each chapter by prompting them to reflect and respond to questions from each level of Bloom’s. Two new chapters on money and debt management and self-engagement meet students where they are. A totally revised and updated chapter on change and goal setting highlights the relationships between realistic goals and ushering positive change into one’s life.
