Undergraduate students are bombarded with challenges: new topics to study and new ways to evaluate and use the information gained from their studies. Budd (information science and learning technologies, U. of Missouri) notes that students' success depends to a large degree on their ability to navigate and interpret that information. His book examines the cognitive aspects of students' perceptions and how they use information, and applies his findings to examples that can be used for courses or class sessions.
