Abstract

Most higher education students are unfamiliar with effective learning strategies that prevented them from achieving good academic result. The purpose of this research is to explore learning strategies of high achieving students. This study employed a qualitative methodology and involved four high achieving students and used semi-structured interviews. This study found ten learning strategies and thirty-seven learning tactics employed by high achieving students. This study found that learning strategies and tactics found in the study suit neuro-linguistic modelling approach. The study suggested that students must be exposed to neuro-linguistic modelling approach early in their university live.

Highlights

  • Under-achieving students in higher education often do not understand and apply effective learning approaches, which prevented them from achieving good academic result

  • The advantage researchers by using NLP modeling techniques was emerging of surprising code that the code on unexpected findings and could not be anticipated before the research started (Creswell, & Creswell, 2018)

  • Visualization strategy can make high achieving students feel motivation before they study and remember what they had learned

Summary

Introduction

Under-achieving students in higher education often do not understand and apply effective learning approaches, which prevented them from achieving good academic result. From the past research conducting by Stott and Hobden (2015), they had further identified three learning strategies namely interrogating information, thinking it through, and organizing and linking. They interviewed gifted high achieving student from the rural area school that focused in science learning. Despite an increased interest to excel in academic but very few studies focused on developing framework for effective learning strategies in higher learning using Neuro-Linguistic Programming or NLP. This study aimed to identify effective learning strategies among high achieved university students in the Malaysian context and further mapped those strategies with NLP approach
