This document summarizes a class on learning styles and effective study techniques for college students. It discusses different learning styles like front runners, planners, builders, and closers. For each style, it provides examples of study routines that involve absorbing material, reviewing it individually and in groups, and practicing through homework. It also shares two sample student schedules integrating mandatory commitments, individual and group study times. The class encourages students to identify their own learning style and plan a customized schedule applying the discussed routines.
