What are learning skills?

If you are asking what the definition of learning skills
is, learning skills are much like study skill.  They are the skills that help a person
be able to pick up and retain new information and ideas.

If
you are asking for examples of learning skills, there are many.  Some of the more basic
learning skills (beyond the ability to read)
are:

• Taking notes.  When reading or listening to
  a lecture, it is important to be able to take good notes.  In order to do this, you have
  to be able to understand what is important in the text or the
  lecture.


• Reviewing.  Since it's hard to know what is
  important the first time you read or hear something, it is often useful to go back over
  your notes and rewrite them.  This involves reading over the notes and adding or
  deleting things once you know more about the subject.  This encourages you to think
  about the subject some more and increases your
  learning.


• Reading.  Although you already know how to
  read, reading more effectively and reading for better comprehension is a skill in
  itself.
