The most comprehensive and up-to-date source available for college reading and study strategy practitioners and administrators, the Third Edition of the Handbook of College Reading and Study Strategy Research reflects and responds to changing demographics as well as politics and policy concerns in the field since the publication of the previous edition. In this thorough and systematic examination of theory, research, and practice, the Handbook offers information to help college reading teachers to make better instructional decisions; justification for programmatic implementations for administrators; and a complete compendium of both theory and practice to better prepare graduate students to understand the parameters and issues of this field. The Handbook is an essential resource for professionals, researchers, and students as they continue to study, research, learn, and share more about college reading and study strategies. Addressing current and emerging theories of knowledge, subjects, and trends impacting the field, the Third Edition features new topics such as disciplinary literacy, social media, and gaming theory.

Reviews for Handbook of College Reading and Study Strategy Research

"""[A] landmark volume in the field of postsecondary literacy….[T]he wide range of topics addressed and recommendations provided for classroom practice and future research studies ensure that this third edition of the Handbook of College Reading and Study Strategy Research will remain a useful resource for the field."" --Journal of College Reading and Learning, 49: 146-149, 2019 ""Indeed, if the field of postsecondary reading and study strategies is to survive and prosper, it is critical for all involved to collaborate. This third edition of the Handbook of College Reading and Study Strategy Research serves as a platform for encouraging and exploring ‘partnerships across the not so invisible divide’ (Flippo & Bean, 2018, p. xi). Equally important, the handbook can be a catalyst for advancing and continuing conversations locally and globally, which will help both scholars and practitioners continue to make informed decisions that help promote success for all students."" --Journal of Adolescent and Adult Literacy 63(5), March 2020"
