LEARNING PLAN

            Every learner has a personal learning style which assimilates the information learnt through collecting, organizing and the skill acquired from learning. My personal learning preference includes multi-media resources such as computers, videos and audios. For books to appear interesting to me they have to contain many pictures and charts. With this, my general understanding of the books with numerous pictures is easier compared to that which contain fewer pictures (Zhang et al, 2012). The theme of the cover makes the book more interesting and creates the urge to read it. To make the learning successful this are some strategies that I will implement and that I will entirely embrace the anticipated information learnt. This strategy will meet the need of my mind and will help to incorporate the information in the graduate program (Zhang et al, 2012).

             Highlighting of the main and very important points from the content of the book with a bright color will play a great role. Making a summary of the information gathered in the form of graphs, charts, pictures or even patterns as well as making visual representation will facilitate remembrance (Zhang et al, 2012).  Arranging information in a simpler and better manner will help in an easier understanding of the information. By using multi-media channels to learn which contains numerous pictures as well as videos will facilitate learning and also a channel to store all the information gathered. Concentrating and avoiding verbal interruption while learning and reading will make the program successful. Engaging in group work and debates and focusing on listening to the lectures during lessons plays an important role (Zhang et al, 2012). In conclusion, my learning style exhibited by visual learning style will greatly contribute towards a successful graduate program.
