The objective of the Master Tutors Network Study Skill Competency Program is to equip students with study skills that will improve the quality of their academic work. The program can be tailored to fit the needs of primary through postsecondary level students. The core of the program is eight study skills which are presented to the learner in a sequenced, competency-based instructional program. The specific study skills are: time management, listening and notetaking, interaction, reading, research, report writing, memory, and test taking. Each study skill is presented as a set of procedural skills which will enable students to learn independently. This guide contains instructional materials for the learner and planning material for the tutor or instructor. Tables of goals and objectives, lesson plans, suggestions for successful tutoring, background material for teaching writing skills, instructions for conducting workshops, and planning worksheets are included.
