"Well, you have to really explore your textbook, you have to make an effort, and you've got to do this in the first week of class because after that it's almost too late. Start at the beginning of the book. First, you should read the notes to the student, which is a section that I think almost everybody passes up as something irrelevant. But you can find great tips for study success, for how to use the book, other materials like Web sites and supplemental study guides that can help you with the course.
"Proceed to the table of contents. Again, a lot of people skip the table of contents unless they're just looking for a certain page. But the table of contents, an overview of that, can tell you how the book is set up, and following the same pattern within each chapter. And the student has to get familiar with the terminology that the book uses: does it use units, chapters, sections, parts? Because this is what the professor is going to use in the course.
"So many of the freshman-level textbooks are basically introducing the new vocabulary of a discipline. So the back of the book has a glossary. I mean, many students don't even realize that's back there. So get to the back of the book, page four hundred five, page five hundred, and notice the glossary.”
