    • Enables students to learn about themselves and how they learn best, so that they can adapt their learning to a variety of situations and set themselves up to be successful.

  • Extensive pedagogical aids formatted consistently in each chapter—i.e., List of words, associated word parts, pronunciations, definition of word parts, words presented in context sentences, dictionary definitions and practice exercises.

    • Provides students with an accessible presentation of the material.

  • Power words conclude each chapter—With pronunciations, definitions, sentences and exercises.

    • Provides students with additional, interesting words that do not fit into the word parts for that chapter.

  • Chapter Reviews conclude each chapter.

    • Provides students with review exercises, a puzzle and activities specifically designed to enhance learning for each learning style.

  • Memory principles throughout.

    • Helps students most effectively learn the new vocabulary and gives them information they can transfer to other academic and nonacademic learning situations.
