SOAR® Study Skills is a comprehensive system that empowers students to manage their time, school-work, and extra-curricular interests more efficiently.
All strategies are easy to integrate into an immediate routine. The four-step program builds upon each strategy to increase students' understanding and retention, while decreasing their homework and study time.
SOAR® Study Skills is a core program, addressing basic organizational and strategic learning needs for students. There are some popular "study strategies" that you will NOT see in SOAR® because they do not meet our criteria for "student-friendly."
The three principles for a student-friendly system that stand behind SOAR® Study Skills are:
-Strategies must be time-efficient. Strategies must be realistic for students to do, save them time, and reduce as many unnecessary steps as possible.
-Strategies must be effective. We respect students' time and will not teach anything that does not deliver results.
-Strategies must apply across the content areas. There are many study skills that are useful techniques, but we only selected or developed strategies that apply across content areas so that students will clearly understand the appropriate times/settings to use the strategies. This approach empowers students to confidently take more responsibility for their own work and develop a more strategic approach to all of their learning.
"I liked how everything was grouped in categories and everything kind of set up the next step of SOAR®."
