"How to Study and Teaching How to Study" by Frank M. McMurry is an educational guide written in the early 20th century. The work focuses on effective study techniques for both adults and children, addressing the challenges that arise in the learning process and the shortcomings of current educational practices. McMurry's aim is to provide strategies for teachers to enhance their students' study habits and understanding of how to learn effectively. The
opening of the book introduces the author’s personal journey and the realization of the dire need for guidance in teaching study methods. McMurry reflects on anecdotal experiences from his time as a student and an educator, highlighting the typical but ineffective practices that students employ, such as mindless memorization. He presents statistical findings that reveal students' struggles to grasp the essential components of effective study. Through these observations, McMurry sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of various factors influencing successful study habits and emphasizes the importance of teaching these skills to children as a part of their education.
