Title: Student Development in College : Theory, Research, and Practice by Nancy J. Evans, Deanna S. Forney, Florence Guido-DiBrito ISBN: 0-7879-0925-4 Publisher: Jossey-Bass Pub. Date: 24 April, 1998 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $40.00 |
Average Customer Rating: 4.33 (3 reviews)
Rating: 3
Summary: Theory Light
Comment: I applaud the authors' attempt to provide an accessible, easy to understand synthesis of student development theory, but they have sacrificed depth for breadth and left the reader with a text that, like over-processed food, provides some nutrition but ultimately fails to satisfy. The book is below the level of most master's degree students and practitioners in student affairs, though it might provide a useful introduction to theory for undergraduates or a useful reference book for administrators who don't have time to read original sources.
Rating: 5
Summary: excellent overview
Comment: I also used this book in my graduate program. This book provides an excellent overview student development theory. It is an excellent introductory text. I had the added benefit of using this text in a course taught by one of the authors.
Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent as reference or teaching tool
Comment: I needed this text for my graduate work, and it will remain on my shelf for many years. It does a great job of covering all of the major developmental theories and a few others!
