Individual learning styles

Measure is designed to assess individual learning preferences of students' everyday lifestyles. Responses do not refer to actual behaviours, but to the preferred learning, relating, and working styles of students. It is based on the Jungian constructs, and the framework of the Myers-Briggs.

Measure can be used to help guide teaching and communication in the school setting, to aid in decision-making related to vocations, and to contribute to counseling purposes. Can also be used in the planning and implementation of interventions. Measure is NOT a diagnostic instrument.
