Summary

Before college students can learn new vocabulary words, they must understand how they learn. This new vocabulary text addresses the need for identifying learning styles by exposing students to the VARK Learning Inventory-encouraging every type of learner to use the skills they already have to master hundreds of new words. BUILDING COLLEGE VOCABULARY STRATEGIES also approaches vocabulary development with a unique and proven systematic strategy called SSCD: (1) See and Say the word; (2) use Structural analysis; (3) apply Context clues; and (4) incorporate Dictionary knowledge. Numerous practice exercises further reinforce comprehension of the word lists. Part II of the text includes four chapters of discipline-specific words, covering Government and History Business, Sociology, and Biology-thereby exposing students to words they would encounter in their other textbooks.
