ABSTRACT
For students to develop independent learning strategies, it is essential to have an understanding of what it is they are aiming for.
Many have presented evidence that improved learning can be achieved by active learning [1,2]. This is currently inducing a major change in teaching and learning.
The use of online delivery for flipped or blended learning offers a number of opportunities to explore student study habits in ways not readily available when using traditional live lecture deliver
