To do this well takes about 2 days in the computer lab as it takes students awhile to take the self-assessments and complete their posters. The sites listed do not require personal information. Sometimes if students are familiar with how they learn, they can utilize strategies to help them with their studies. It also takes the onus off of them to find out why they may be struggling in class. This project helps them to identify their learner profile and identify some strategies for their style.
