Learning Preferences helps students understand how they learn best and offers practical learning strategies that match their strengths.

Thinkdrive uses the Index of Learning Styles (ILS) (Opens external link in new window), an online survey that identifies a student’s learning preferences across four key areas:

• Processing information : Active / Reflective
• Taking in information : Sensing / Intuitive
• Information presentation : Visual / Verbal
• Organising information : Sequential / Global

This learning preferences model was developed by Richard M. Felder and Linda K. Silverman and later refined and validated by Richard M. Felder and Barbara A. Soloman.

The goal is simple; to help students use learning strategies that match their strengths, improving confidence, engagement, and learning outcomes.

1. Students complete 44 short, multiple-choice (A/B) questions
2. Results are generated instantly, showing the student’s preferences across all four areas
3. Students receive practical, matched learning strategies they can use straight away
4. Results can be copied or printed for later use

Important note:
Student responses are not stored. Once the report window is closed, the results are permanently deleted.

Approximately 12–15 minutes to complete.
