The Study Guides and Strategies Website [1] is researched, authored, maintained and supported by Joe Landsberger as a learner-centric independent educational public service. There is no advertising, registration, nor distracting graphics or features that may interfere with maximizing learner access.

Approximately 120 topics are divided into 15 sections: Preparing, Learning, Studying, Classroom participation, Learning with others, Online learning and communicating, Reading skills, Test preparation, Test taking, Writing basics, Writing types, Research, Project management, Math, Science and technology. Vocabulary and concepts are written at a middle school level. Content is translated by volunteers into 32 languages.

Traffic exceeds one million page views per month, or 70 million hits per year. Audience includes students including returning adult, teachers, support professionals, and even parents. There are over 1100 links to the website most from educational institutions. More documentation can be found at [2]

Collaborative projects are developed across institutional, cultural and national boundaries. Permission is granted to freely copy, adapt, and distribute individual Study Guides in print format in non-commercial educational settings that benefit learners. No request to link to the Web site is necessary. Please be aware that the Guides welcome, and are under, continuous review and revision. For that reason, reproduction of all content on the Internet can only be with permission through a licensed agreement.
