What’s your Learning Power profile like?

22 February 2024

It’s always helpful to reflect on how we handle change and challenge. This educational tool gives you instant personal feedback into your Learning Power.

The only thing we’re sure the future holds is change... 

The world seems to be in chronic turbulence! And now you may have just started uni, bringing more change. But if you aren’t changing, you aren’t learning.

Change and learning need resilience, so it helps if you can train yourself not to be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and roll with the unexpected.

This is where the concept of Learning Power can help, based on decades of educational research. This UTS website introduces different dimensions of Learning Power, which you may find helpful just to read.

But what’s your Learning Power like? 

This is where you jump onto our educationally validated survey (takes about 20 minutes – this guide walks you through each step). 

You answer questions about how you approach learning, such as:

This obviously isn’t an “objective test” because you’re free to answer any way you choose. It’s about being ready to reflect on your profile: so the more honest you are with yourself, the more you get out of it (and don’t worry, this platform meets all the UTS privacy and security requirements). 

Your Learning Power Profile

Next, you get your Learning Power Profile, which will look something like this, plus a personal report on what this means and how you might choose to work on it:

Like to learn with others? Get a couple of friends to do it too, and then you can follow the coaching guide to help you all reflect on your profiles!

Loving it? Next you get to “stretch” your profile – setting yourself a goal to work some aspects of it — this could be in your degree, job, work placement, or recreation.

Getting your Learning Power profile is one step in a “Learning Journey”. So, why not get ahead and jump onto the Learning Journeys website? 

Because change is here to stay...

The science behind it: The Learning Power project comes from >20 years’ educational research by Ruth Crick, formerly of UTS and now an Honorary Professor. The research underpinning this is described at the UTS Connected Intelligence Centre which develops analytics and AI apps to advance learning.
