STUDY SKILLS AND LEARNING STYLES

Studying is work.  Each person is a unique individual with unique styles of learning.  Most folks do not really know  their learning style.  They do know that some classes and instructors "click" for them and others do not.  This is probably because the classes that "click" have used methods of teaching and learning that match  students' learning style.  Knowing your particular learning style(s) will help studying be  more efficient and productive work.     

The following links lead to two web sites.  Each site has an interactive learning style inventory that will assess your learning style(s).
