The importance of learning is widely recognized, but how much effort do we make to ensure that we are learning effectively? Right from our school days, we always believed that learning just happens naturally. However, there is much more that can be done to learn more effectively and efficiently.

Learning is something we are very familiar with and it is a part of our everyday lives. But, despite this, it is fair to say that relatively few people achieve the level of optimal learning. The reason behind this is that we are more focused on getting our job done at that moment and we don’t take enough time to draw out learning from our daily experience. We don’t capitalize on all the learning opportunities that we encounter – and this is how this course guides us.

Learning to Learn is a course, which will help you develop a better understanding of how learning works, what can get in the way of learning, and how you can make the most of the learning opportunities you will encounter in future. This course begins with a short introductory video, followed by six main lessons, and a concluding video. This is a comprehensive course with more than 3 hours of video content. But it can be completed flexibly in your own time and at your own pace, you don’t have to tackle it all in one go. You will need to download and print out the Module Companion E-book. This E-book will be useful for you:

• To take notes and consolidate your learning as you progress through this course.
• To undertake the exercises, which are the core elements of your learning in the course.
