Publisher's Synopsis
What students often need is an information problem-solving strategy: they know how to proceed, they just don't know how to begin each step in a process. The author of this revolutionary new book has created a simple, yet highly effective process students can learn and apply to each set of problem-solving issues they encounter. The author and a team of students developed a four-step strategy, based on sound psychological principles, that helps kids solve any kind of informational problem on their own. With concrete examples of this process's success in her own school-and in the schools subsequently attended by her students-Yucht demonstrates how this simple strategy helps kids to simplify and approach even complicated assignments, increasing their chances of success.
