Hello everyone, welcome to a new episode of the Decentre. I'm your host, as always, Ricardo Lopes, and today I'm joined by Dr. Paul Penn. He is senior lecturer in the School of Psychology at the University of East London. His interests revolve around cognitive psychology and understanding how we can best use psychological knowledge to improve the way
People learn, communicate and collaborate. And today we're focusing on his book, The Psychology of Effective Studying, How to Succeed in Your Degree. So Dr. Penn, welcome to the show. It's a pleasure to have you one.
Thank you for having me. Really great, great to be here. So perhaps just to introduce the book here, could you start by telling us what led you to writing this book? I mean, and what are perhaps the main goals you had in mind with it? Yeah, so the the main reason for writing the book really was purely because um as a lecturer I'd seen a lot of and heard a lot of students expressing a lot of dissatisfaction with studying.
