Arvustused

"Imagine the ideal academic advisor, who knows all of the tricks of the trade, is up on the latest technology and how to use it effectively, and is happy to take the time to guide you. Now make that advisor not only deep and wise, but also very funny. If such an advisor exists, it is probably Dr. Penn. This book is a marvelous tutorial on how to succeed as a student and scholar. It is steeped in the authors up-to-date knowledge of numerous scientific literatures and technical (including AI), and it does a remarkably good job of distilling what is most important and explaining clearly how to use this material to good end. This book is about much more than effective studyingit is also about functioning effectively in a wide range of situations, from academe to business. I recommend it with enormous enthusiasm."

Stephen M. Kosslyn, President and CEO of Foundry College, and former Founding Dean and Chief Academic Officer of the Minerva Schools at the Keck Graduate Institute, USA

One of psychologys unsung gifts to the world is evidence-based advice on how to understand and remember material. Dr. Penns book is an excellent invitation to these fascinating and enormously practical discoveriesincluding guidance on how they can be applied to studying in the age of AI.

"This irreverent and conversational book will be really helpful to all who want to use psychology to foster success at degree level study. The second edition is considerably updated, not only to take account of recent pedagogic literature but also the seismic changes in university learning brought about by the use and abuse of Generative AI, seen here as a positive boon as well as a hazard to be taken seriously to avoid accusations of academic misconduct. I bought the first edition for undergraduate family members and will do so again with this edition.
