[quote=Anonymous][quote=AnonymousHe has been doing poorly on his exams in a variety of social science and humanities classes (these are his main subjects of interest and always did very well in history, social studies etc in HS). Consistently he is getting the same feedback from professors on these exams - from philosophy to political science to sociology classes - that he clearly knows the material, but is not applying it / analyzing it well. [/quote] You might try the book, "Thinking Critically in College: The Essential Handbook for Student Success" by Louis Newman. I heard him give a talk on it, and it's about the unwritten expectations that a lot of professors have for students. Here's a review, too: https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/louis-e-newman/thinking-critically-in-college/[/quote]
