  • INTUITIVE
  • intuitive learners often prefer discovering possibilities and relationships.
  • you gain understanding of material by hearing classmates' explanations and you learn even more when you do the explaining.
  • intuitors may be better at grasping new concepts and are often more comfortable than sensors with abstractions

  • Good learners are capable of processing information presented either visually or verbally.
  • Write summaries or outlines of course material in your own words.
  • intuitors like innovation and dislike repetition.
  • GLOBAL
  • Global learners tend to learn in large jumps, absorbing material almost randomly without seeing connections, and then suddenly "getting it."
  • global learners may be able to solve complex problems quickly or put things together in novel ways once they have grasped the big picture, but they may have difficulty explaining how they did it.
  • What makes you global or not is what happens before the light bulb goes on.
  • strengthen your global thinking skills by relating each new topic you study to things you already know.
  • outline the lecture material for yourself in logical order.
  • you need the big picture of a subject before you can master details
  • get an overview
  • immerse yourself in individual subjects for large blocks
  • Try to relate the subject to things you already know
  • your understanding of how it connects to other topics and disciplines may enable you to apply it in ways that most sequential thinkers would never dream of.
