Learning Style Ideas

Visual learners:
  • Create mind maps and concept maps
  • Colour-co-ordinate your notes
  • Use visual aids such as flashcards, diagrams, charts and pictures in addition to your class notes
  • Watch a short clip or movie about your topic
Auditory learners:
  • Try recording your lectures, notes, etc. and playing them back
  • Have a group study session (e.g. go to the library, cafe or friend’s house)
  • Get involved in class discussions
  • When writing essays and assignments, try reading the material out loud
  • Make up rhymes or songs about key theories and concepts
  • Use word association (Think of similar words that can be associated with the concept or definition you are trying to learn)
Kinaesthetic leaners:
  • Include a physical activity e.g. dance, pacing, acting out concepts or theories.
  • Build  a 3D model or diorama
  • Go on a field trip
Read/Write learners:
  • Take detailed notes in class
  • Re-write your notes as a revision exercise
  • Turn diagrams and charts into words
  • Ask your lecturer or teacher for handouts
  • Read multiple resources such as the internet, text books, class notes and articles
  • Write a creative piece about the information you are learning
