The resource created by our group is a web site for students to discover what their preferential learning style is based on the VARK model.  Having discovered their preferential learning style the resource provides study tips for Visual, Audio, Read and Write and Kinaesthetic learners.  
It was decided that each member of our group would be responsible for creating the content for a particular learning style.  The group agreed the general format and style of the site and each member of the group continued to provide help and advice to other members of the group when needed.
This page contains the information and presentations that formed the basis of the content that appears on the visual page of our site
