Learning strategies and learning styles mind maps

These user-made maps bring together ideas about how people approach studying. Make It Stick connects retrieval and practice with learning styles. Ways to Improve Learning covers organization, note-taking and asking questions. Other maps look at online learning, reflection and procrastination.

How to use the maps

Start with Make It Stick if you want to explore how practice fits into learning. Follow its branches and explain the connections in your own words. Then compare those ideas with the practical suggestions in Ways to Improve Learning.

For a different focus, look at the map on procrastination and memory or the one on focused and diffuse modes of thinking. When you want to check what you remember, switch to a quiz on the unit page. Flashcards there offer another format for short study sessions.

Choose a branch from a map and use it as the starting point for your own notes.
