Learning strategies are the different approaches and methods that humans use to enhance learning. These strategies include:

• Advance organizers
• Memory training
• Mnemonic learning
• Note taking
• Observational learning
• Practice
  • Distributed practices
  • Massed practice
• Social learning
• Trail and error learning

Which techniques a person finds useful depends on a number of factors:

• Cognitive style
• Learning style
• Study habits
• Time management

[edit] See also

• Constant time delay
• Metacognition
• Prompting
