Study Skills

Study SkillsStudy SkillsStudy skills are learning strategies that help students organize, process, and use information effectively. Because youth might need help not just with what they learn but also with how they learn it, WIA makes study skills instruction, together with tutoring and dropout prevention, one of the 10 required elements of youth programs. These skills are important not just for academic learning, but also for everyday life.

Handbook of Children and Youth StudiesThis handbook gives a new scientific perspective to youth and childhood studies as multi scientific and interdisciplinary subjects which as such have not yet found their own framing in a particular discipline. It provides theoretical and methodological key debates and issues that develop and add an understanding of childhood and youth research discipline from a broader perspective. The Handbook on Children and Youth Studies draws on current thinking, but also challenges theoretical and conceptual orthodoxies in the field, drawing on interdisciplinary thinking and critical perspectives.

The Post-Subcultures Reader (2003)

The Post-Subcultures Reader (2003)The Post-Subcultures Reader (2003)Once it was just Mods and Rockers or Hippies and Skinheads. Now we have Riot Grrls and Rappers; Modern Primitives and Metalheads; Goths, Clubcultures and Fetishists; Urban Tribes, New Age Travellers and Internet fan groups. In a global society with a rapid proliferation of images, fashions and lifestyles, it is -unsurprisingly - becoming increasingly difficult to pinpoint what 'subculture actually means. Enthusiastically adopted by the media and academia, subculture may be a convenient way to describe more unconventional aspects of youth culture, but it does little to help us comprehend the diverse range of youth groups in todays so-called postmodern world.
