“…Fortunately, academic success and self-management training programs involving weekly seminars on topics ranging from problem solving and learning strategies to research skills to motivation have been effective at helping students learn resourceful and academic skills and modify their negative academic beliefs (Bowering, Mills, & Merritt, 2017;Kennett, 1994;Reed et al, 2011;Reed et al, 2009). Whereas resourceful behaviors are thought to be acquired in childhood and early adolescence through informal interactions with parents and significant others, particularly resourceful others adopting a warm, loving, and supportive parenting style (Rosenbaum, 1990;Turkel & Tezer, 2008;Zauszniewski et al, 2002), formal and extensive instruction of general and academic-specific resourceful behaviors by supportive and encouraging instructors who are knowledgeable in education techniques is important at the university level (Bowering et al, 2017). Academic success and self-management programs, therefore, focus on formally teaching key academic and resourcefulness skills, such as writing and editing skills, library research skills, time management and planning skills, deep learning strategies, goal-setting techniques, and constructively coping with academic stress, and these often extend over the course of an entire academic semester (see Bowering et al, 2017;Kennett, 1994 for details about course content).…”
