The book provides - A clear rationale for summarization in any subject along with an explanation of the cognitive science that powers its positive effects, including the influence of background knowledge and primacy-recency, plus the benefits of metaphors, chunking, timing, maintaining objectivity, and the efficacy that comes when students process content. - Practical tips for teaching students note taking, paraphrasing, and text structure. - Nine easy strategies that teachers can use to help students begin to understand what they need to know in order to summarize. - Detailed descriptions of 60 strategies and critical thinking variations that provide students with memorable learning experiences, plus targeted support materials that assist in teaching and learning.
