WHAT? This manual is about learning how to learn, understanding one’s learning processes to improve one’s ability to learn flexibly and independently.

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL: As learning processes are often invisible as we often lack awareness of how we think and learn, this manual aims to make the implicit explicit.

The first part of the manual deals with content and how we consume it and make meaning from it. The content is processed and transformed through thinking.

The second part of the manual deals with thinking and the steps involved in thinking in different ways eg. critical thinking. Questions are the drivers of thinking.

Understand the overarching models like the Self-Directed Learning Model, Blooms Taxonomy and Search, Consume and Meaning-Making process and Generative Learning Strategies will give you context and guidance for Learning how to Learn and summarise the main elements to focus on.
