Academic Vocabulary

Because students benefit greatly from increased word power, the study of vocabulary should be
enjoyable. Unfortunately, vocabulary workbooks often lose sight of this goal. To make the study
of vocabulary an exciting and enjoyable part of college study, I wrote Academic Vocabulary.
The goal of this book—the third in a three-book interactive vocabulary series—is to make
the study of vocabulary fun through a variety of thematic readings, self-tests, and interactive
exercises. As a casual glimpse through the book will indicate, these activities involve writing,
personal experience, art, and many other formats. The goal of these activities is simple: to utilize
individual learning styles in order to help students learn new words in a large number of contexts.
Underlying the text’s strong visual appeal is the philosophy that an essential part of learning
vocabulary is repeated exposure to a word. Academic Vocabulary provides eight exposures to
each vocabulary word in the text plus more opportunities for exposure through the Collaborative
Activities and games in the Instructor’s Manual.
