Abstract

Student Approaches to Learning and Studying formulates a theory of student learning which, together with the instruments deriving from it, has important implications for teaching practice at the secondary and tertiary level. The norms were established on two secondary and two tertiary large national samples. The instruments are easy and convenient to administer and score, and their inter-pretation and use are based on carefully researched but easy-to-grasp theory. Student Approaches to Learning and Studying consists of a Research Monograph which describes the investigations leading to the theory's formulation; LPQ Manual which gives data on reliability and validityand describes a 36 -item Learning Process Questionnaire; and SPQ Manual which gives data on reliability and validityand describes a 42-item Study Process Questionnaire.
