Identifying Your Learning Style
Due to our different personalities, we all have preferred styles of learning that suit us best. By discovering which learning techniques work best for you, you can apply these to your revision, reading, note taking etc and study in the most effective way for you.
You may want to go online and complete a survey to find out what your learning styles are. Try the following link:

The Myers-Brigg Inventory is another helpful tool for discovering your learning style which is clearly explained in 'The Smarter Student' (McMillan et al., 2006, p82-88). As is the ‘C.R.E.A.M.’ (creative, reflective, effective, active, motivated) strategy for learning’ explained in ‘The Study Skills Handbook' (Cottrell, 2003).
Books are available in the library and Blackwells book shop regarding study skills and the learning process. You may also find these websites useful:
