How do you learn?

The questions is how do you learn, not how well do you learn? If you know how you learn there is a good chance that you learn rather well. Some people will be quick to say that they do not learn very well, or at least as well as they would like to or hope to do. Most of the time they would improve their learning potential if they knew how they learned.
Here is a short assessment to help you understand how you learn. There are many other assessments like this that can be found on the web, but they are basically the same as far as the out come, that is, understanding how you learn.

Understanding how you learn is important. It will help you find and utilize those learning tools that will maximize your learning potential. I am a visual learner. As a mater of fact, I have a very high propensity towards visual learning. This explains, to some degree, why I did not do very well in high school and college in the late 70s. When I joined the military in the early 80s, I did rather well because they used multimedia and computer base e-learning for about 60% of my training in aviation electronics. This also explains, in part, why some people do not do well with e-learning class environments.

There will always be those that do well in conventional style learning environments and there will be those that do better in e-learning based learning environments. So it comes down to, how do you learn? If you understand how you learn, and then pursue those learning tools that fit your learning profile, chances are you will maximize your learning potential. If you have been struggling with learning you might be using learning tools that do not maximize your learning potential.
