Composing a College Career
Jeffrey Klausman
Composing a College Career speaks to first-year students as they are: intelligent, capable humans with the knowledge and skills to make the most of their higher education. This text walks students through different concepts and approaches using the lens of relatable experiences, letting each learner decide which strategies work best for them. Designed to support the First-Year Experience course, the concise chapter format is structured to leverage the way students read, gather, and apply information. Interactive content, informal assessments, and active learning strategies encourage students to dive deeper into topics and, ultimately, ask themselves what an ‘effective’ education looks like for them.
