Learning Styles

What are Learning Styles?

Everyone has preferences as to how they learn best. You can't control how a teacher is going to teach you, but you can make the best of it.

You can process the information in a way that favors your learning style.

In this assignment, you will take complete two questionnaires to determine (roughly) how you like to process information. You will also find tips on how to tailor your learning to get the most out of it.

In 1987, Neil Fleming of New Zealand came up with a questionnaire to help people figure out how they learn best. He called his model of learning styles VARK, which breaks learning styles into the following categories:

Visual
Auditory
Reading & Writing
Kinesthetic

What strategies are you currently using?

Take this questionnaire to see what types of things you do when you are in class or studying.

If it's something you have been doing for a while, it's probably because it's been helpful to you.

🀩 WRITE DOWN YOUR VARK SCORES

How do you prefer to learn?

Next you'll take the VARK questionnaire. This will help you figure out how you prefer to tackle problems.

This will give you another set of VARK scores.

🀨 WRITE DOWN THESE SCORES TOO

Coming to a Conclusion

Now that you know your "go to" strategies for learning, let's see what that means to your learning.
