I was very lucky as I was completing my degrees. I had a full scholarship covering tuition for part of one and a generous company tuition reimbursement program for another part. With both parts of school, my books were something I had to pay for myself. I quickly learned that college books are expensive. Even buying used at the bookstore was so much. I needed to find some way to save to avoid a large amount of student loan debt.
While I was finishing my degree and working, I started looking into purchasing textbooks online. It made complete sense as I was attending classes online as well (which was totally cutting edge just 10 years ago, but is just the norm nowadays). There are so many places available with this option but it was newer back then.
Now there is a new trend for providing affordable options for textbooks – it’s renting. Did you ever think you would hear that??!! Cengage Learning, the country’s second largest textbook publisher created CengageBrain to offer a textbook rental option. On CengageBrain.com, you will find more than 3,000 titles for rent. Some are up to 70% less than the retail price (aka, expensive college bookstore prices).
Because *some* college students may be last minute renters, it’s nice that the first chapter of the book is available in an e-book format. And, once the rental term is complete, it’s easy to either return the book. You can also purchase e-textbooks, individual e-chapters, audio books, and homework/study tools on CengageBrain as well.
I wanted to find something for Caleb to assist him with phonics and reading. After looking through the site I was overwhelmed honestly. There are truly so many titles. It’s easiest to go directly to either view selections by Category by clicking on Discover CengageBrain at the top. Or, you could just as easily enter the ISBN, Book Title or Author in the search option. This is likely what you would do if you are going to rent textbooks or if a teacher recommends a specific resource. You could find the resources much quicker that way than randomly searching.
If you are weirded out about ordering and renting online like this (like my mom always was when I finished school and ordered books online), this is truly an innovative option. I definitely think it’s a great way to keep school expenses lower.
There are also free resources on the site available under Study Tools. You must be logged into your account to be able to view the items. There’s a ton more info on the CengageBrain FAQ Page.
CengageBrain is providing me (1) $150 CengageBrain Credit (valid for one-time use) to give away. To enter in this giveaway, you have (4) forms of entry, which are:
Leave me a comment and tell me what routines you have for yourself, your kids, or you used to have for studying and getting homework done. Luckily T is a self motivated kid so he takes opportunities at school to finish up homework and unfinished class work. Caleb is another story all together. We have to have a planned time each day to get his work done or he could care less!

My kids have a quick snack after school and then any homework for that day, once completed they are allowed free time. We tried to have homework time after supper but that time of day ended up not working out for us.
Right after school we have a snack then do homework right away before play time so that it is out of the way and they are still focused.
Our routine: My oldest son is self-motivated and will do his homework on his own when he gets home from school (usually done at the sitter’s house). My youngest one is given a chance to play prior to doing his homework. He doesn’t have as much being as he will only be in 1st grade this year. He still has an assignment or two a week plus spelling and we study every night. After bathtime, I usually check homework while the kids are eating their bedtime snacks. We’ve tried nearly everything and this seems to work best for us.
For my homework, I do it whenever I get a chance…early morning, lunch hour, during football practice. It depends on the amount I have and the home/family schedule.
I like MommySnacks on Facebook (and here)!
Getting homework done in a timely manner isn’t an issue at our house. My son loves to do his homework. Hope that continues as he gets older.
I give them 20 minutes snack time before they get started so they can stay focus and half way through give them a outside time break so they can get reenergized

My daughter is starting kindergarten this year. We don’t have a set routine yet, but I tried to read a phonics book with her or have her read a real book for 15 minutes a day. It is HARD to get her to focus sometimes.
My husband is back in school for his masters, this would be a huge help!!!
Being that i’m a full time college student, work full time from home and take care of two children, I don’t have a routine. Its almost like I do my homework when I can. I usually wait until everyone is sleeping and need to stay up until all hours of the night. The kids, need to do their homework when they get home from school.
My oldest is fairly motivated and independent when it comes to schoolwork… he only comes to me if he runs into something he needs help with. My youngest on the other hand, needs me to sit with her and help her get started and stay motivated!
my son also tends to get a lot of his homework done at school but if not then when he gets home we get a quick snack and then go ahead and get the homework done for the night

My son is in first grade so we don’t really have a routine. Growing up I had to do homework right after school. I don’t think that method will work for my son, we’ll probably do it after dinner. Nightly we read together and he seems to enjoy that!

Homework is done after dinner before playing
I already follw you on blogger. My kids learned to be responsible fortheir homework because I won’t nag about it. If it doesn’t get done then they live with the consequenses, get a bad grade, and get grounded and sit at home while their friends are out having fun. They only made that mistake a few times before they learned to get it done.
I have found that for myself if I don’t put my Bible study first then the day gets away from me and I don’t ever get to it.
My little one is just starting kindergarten this year so we don’t have any set routines yet. Whenever I studied, I would always highlight a lot and use index cards

THis win would be for me…since I am in school full-time myself :)
I typically have the TV in the background as I do homework just incase I start crumbling or become overwhelmed by it, i can just glance at my TV to calm me down
I have to have house to myself and sit at my desk and study.

My son is only in daycare currently but I am planning on going back to school. It has been awhile since I had to study so I would need to see what works for me now. In high school it was easy I never had to study and I did homework right before it was do. We will see what works for me when I start back up.
I only have one child in school (Kindergarten), so no homework yet. I was never a procrastinator in school. I couldn’t wait until the last minute. I hope I can get my kids on the right track when the time comes.

I was always cramming on Sunday night, so am trying hard to help my kids learn the benefit if using their planners to work on things early and make the time for studying around other activities. Hope they learn this lesson :)
My daughter finished her homework at school today!! My son hasn’t had any yet, but the plan is for both to do it as soon as we get home, before their after-school activities.
My daughter was too young for homework last year. Maybe this year she’ll have some.
for my HS d it helps if she does her work right when she gets home from school – better brain power then – later it takes twice as long to do the same work

everyday when Dominique comes home she gets a snack then jumps into homework as soon as all of it is done she gets to play for the rest of the day and that works great for us

Routine at our house is take a break afterschool with a snack first and then hit the books BEFORE any sports activity starts. Honestly with 3 kids at 3 different “categories” it is hard to have a set FAMILY routine. But we do know…NOT tv or computer til homework is done!

My routine is to pick a time, concentrate only on what I’m doing, and then work on it until I’m finished or at a pre-decided stopping point.
Great option for books. Sounds like heaven.
Generally, they are self motivated, but a home school review pending helps keep us on our toes.

I try to have a routine to get homework done with my ten year old. Due to her having ADHD and meds being out of her system it is hard to get homework done. Homework can sometime take us upto 2 hours. It gets done, but I have to allow her time to take a break otherwise we both get fustrated and nothing gets done.
My homework routine is to hit the library on my way home, get it all done, and then when I get home I can relax!
I am a facebook fan as well.
I have always been kind of a cram studier, which works for me splendidly (yet surprisingly). I’m a graphic design student, and I don’t have all the necessary programs to get some work done. So, I always use my time wisely at school, barely taking breaks as I work on homework, staring at a computer. :P Those that I can do at home, I try to get them out of the way or go back and forth between work and online-browsing.
I was always a procrastinator. I have 4 kids and the all have different homework techniques. One plans ahead and gets work done early, another likes to do the bare minimum to get a good grade.
We do homework immediately after school

My routine was to come home, take a nap in the recliner, and then get homework done before dinner so I could watch t.v. in the evenings.
In college I made sure I had an hour or two break once a day between classes so I could do homework or study before a test in the library.

We make a point of letting the kids play for awhile after school – to help ease having been cooped up all day. After dinner and their help cleaning up the table, the sit back down to do their work. I don’t think they are self-disciplined, but they know that they will loose privileges if the school work isn’t satisfactory and/or grades drop.
I take good notes and I set aside time everyday to study.
Homework is right after dinner!
Well since summer break I have fell out of any kind of routine.
Which I know will be hard to get out of when school starts back.

I always waited till the last minute. With my kid we’re starting to study early in the week and throughout the week. I don’t want her to have poor study habits.
First, let me say that I really, really, need this book credit!! I am a single Mom currently taking online classes full time, and I was shocked to see how much textbooks are. Online and book rentals still go beyond my budget. I have two classes that I don’t have textbooks because of the expense. I hope to win this so I can get my textbooks. Thanks for the giveaway. :)

Most of my kids have good study habits, but one of my boys has to be reminded regularly to get his homework done.
I have my kids in a routine that when they come home from school they eat a snack and then sit down for homework and reading. I sit with them to make sure they are doing their work correctly. My husband who is taking classes online is very disciplined in his studies. He is a week ahead of the curriculum becuase he takes time every night to study and do homework in advance.

Getting it done as soon as possible to other activities can be done.
