Learning/Study Preferences for
  (F)eeling Law Students

Adapted from Gordon Lawrence,
 People Types and Tiger Stripes 43 (1992).
Cognitive Style
Feeling law students favor a cognitive style that involves:
bulletmaking value judgments concerning human motives and personal values, 
bulletattending to relationships, 
bulletpersonalizing issues and causes they care about, 
bulletstaying tuned to the quality of the subjective tone of relationships and seeking harmony in relationships, 
bulletattending to the quality of their own emotional life, and 
bulletnaturally appreciating people and their accomplishments.
Study Style
Feeling law students favor a study style that involves:
bulletlearning through personal relationships rather than impersonal individualized activities, 
bulletlearning by helping and responding to other peoples' needs, 
bulletstudying with a friend, and 
bulletwanting to choose topics to study that they care deeply about.
Instruction that fits F's: Feeling law students do their best work with:
bulletteachers who value a personal rapport with students, 
bulletassignments that have a goal of helping people, 
bulletfeedback that shows warm appreciation for the student and his or her effort, and gives corrective suggestions in that context, and 
bulletpersonalized assignments.
