How to Absorb Information to Make It More Memorable

Abstract

Absorption learning preferences indicate which formats are most advantageous to a specific learner. Students have to deal with a variety of presentation formats because they usually do not control the choice of course material. By converting the initial information into their preferred format, successful law students will increase their understanding, retention, and recall. This article describes the verbal, visual, aural, and kinesthetic learning preferences and provides tips on how to apply each preference to advantage.
