Target core skills

This task covers ACSF Learning and Oral communication at Levels 1, 2 or 3.

Can you tell me about something that you learned recently?

How did you learn it? People learn new skills every day, such as how to use the internet, how to record TV shows or how to drive a car. (NOTE: This question is to gather information about HOW the learning occurred, rather than WHAT the learning was about.)

What do you like about learning? Can you talk about how you think you like to learn?

What helps you to learn? People learn in different ways. Some learn best by listening and writing, some from visual aids such as the whiteboard or the TV, some learn by watching and doing. Others like to learn in a group, while some people prefer to learn one-on-one with a support person.
