BUILDING COLLEGE VOCABULARY STRATEGIES also approaches vocabulary development with a unique and proven systematic strategy called SSCD: (1) "See and Say" the word; (2) use "Structural" analysis; (3) apply "Context" clues; and (4) incorporate "Dictionary" knowledge. Numerous practice exercises further reinforce comprehension of the word lists. Part II of the text includes four chapters of discipline-specific words, covering Government and History Business, Sociology, and Biology--thereby exposing students to words they would encounter in their other textbooks.
