A
If you have a strong preference for learning by Aural methods (A
= hearing) you should use some or all of the following:
|
INTAKE
To take in the information |
- attend lectures
- attend tutorials
- discuss topics with other students
- discuss topics with your lecturers
- explain new ideas to other people
- use a tape recorder
- remember the interesting examples, stories, jokes...
- describe the overheads, pictures and other visuals to somebody who
was not there
- leave spaces in your lecture notes for later recall and 'filling'
|
SWOT - Study without tears
To make a learnable package: |
Convert your lecture “notes” into a learnable package by reducing them (3:1)
- Your lecture notes may be poor because you prefer to listen. You
will need to expand your notes by talking with others and collecting
notes from the textbook.
- Put your summarised notes onto tapes and listen to them.
- Ask others to 'hear' your understanding of a topic.
- Read your summarised notes aloud.
- Explain your notes to another 'aural' person.
|
OUTPUT
To perform well in the examination: |
- Talk with the examiner
- Listen to your voices and write them down.
- Spend time in quiet places recalling the ideas.
- Practice writing answers to old exam questions.
- Speak your answers.
You prefer to have all of this page explained to
you.
The written words are not as valuable as those you hear.
You will probably go and tell somebody about this.
