Abstract

What do we know about how our students actually learn? This paper explores this simple question by considering some relevant concepts, and methods that can be used for working with them. A variety of topics, or areas of study, where actual learning processes might be explored are summarised. Areas have been selected which have learning as a clearly identifiable component and which should be relevant to a broad view of OR. Ideas are included on how OR students might then be encouraged to better understand their own learning processes. This is supplemented by a short description of a study, undertaken in our first year management systems class, to increase learning process awareness through the use of the approaches to study inventory.
