4 Most Common Learning Styles - ANSWER Visual
Auditory
Read/Write
Kinesthetic
Visual or Spatial Learners - ANSWER * Learn best through what they see
* Like pictures, diagrams, flow charts, timelines, maps, and demonstrations
Visual Learners
* A good learning assignment for a visual learner might involve concept
mapping.
* Likes using computers and graphics
* May also be called graphic learners
* Note- visual learners do NOT usually care to learn by viewing movies, videos,
or PowerPoint presentations
, Aural or Auditory Learners - ANSWER * Prefer to learn through what is heard
or spoken
* Learn best from lectures, tapes, tutorials, group discussions, speaking, web
chats, emails, mobile phones, and talking things through out loud
* By talking about a topic these learners are able to process the given
information
Reading or Writing Learners - ANSWER * Prefer to have the information to be
learned displayed as written words
* Prefer text-based input and output in all forms
* Preference of many academics
* Love PowerPoint presentations, the internet, lists, dictionaries, quotes.
Kinesthetic or Active Learners - ANSWER * Use their bodies and sense of
touch to enhance learning while engaged in physical activity
* Like to think about issues while working out or exercising
* Like to participate, play games, role0play, act, and model experiences
Demonstration, simulation, videos and movies' of "real things", and also case
studies, practice sessions and applications' appreciated *
"active learners"*
Multimodal/Mixture Learners - ANSWER * prefer to learn via two or more
styles of learning/modes *
Like information to be context specific or choose single mode for situations*
like to gather info from each mode, and often have deeper and broader
understanding of topics
Kolb's Experiential Learning Styles - ANSWER 1) Diverging
