Nursing Research Methods
A useful book which has a number of very good and well explained reminders especially in relation to getting started as a student in a new environment of higher education. The points on the need to assess self and prepare for higher education is very good and clear. Other parts containing information on writing skills were useful, eg. making notes in a lecture or classroom session, prioritising time and writing an asnwer. The information in the literature search section is very good.
A useful book with lots of useful resources for student learning

Very useful book. Would be very useful as pre-course reading to inform student nurses about how to learn. Writing skills and numeracy are core skills that many students need to focus on.
