Learning Styles by Megan (S2)

What is a learning style? A learning style is a way of learning that is best for you, also known as a learning preference. How I learn best:- Visual = 6 Auditory = 4 Read/write = 2 Kinesthetic = 11

What do these scores mean? Having a strong Kinesthetic score I am a DOING LEARNER I prefer for example: Lab work Field Trips Being given real life examples Hands–on practical work

More on Learning Styles By Rachel and Jasper

VARK Learning Styles V stands for VISUAL – you prefer seeing:

VARK Learning Styles A stands for AURAL – you prefer listening: * discuss topics with others * discuss topics with your teachers * explain new ideas to other people * use a tape recorder * remember the interesting examples, stories, jokes * describe the overheads, pictures and other visuals to somebody who was not there * leave spaces in your notes for later recall and 'filling'

VARK Learning Styles R stands for READ/WRITE * lists * headings * dictionaries * glossaries * definitions * handouts * textbooks * readings (library) * notes * teachers who use words well and have lots of information in sentences and notes

VARK Learning Styles K stands for KINESTHETIC – you prefer to DO * use all your senses * lab work * field trips * real life examples * hands on approaches (cooking, computers) * trial and error * exhibits, samples, photographs * recipes, solutions to problems, previous worked examples
