Learning Style Assessment

Improved Essays
The learning style assessment, in my opinion was very accurate with how I feel I study. The assessment consisted of a variety of questions that range from our everyday life out of school to the way we do stuff in classes. Some of the questions asked allowed you to choose multiple answers, which I feel they should have allowed this for the entire assessment rather than just a few. Once completing the assessment, it gave you a breakdown out of all three learning styles; audio, hands on, and visual, which one is your most used way of learning and then listed the rest in a different order following. Each individual learning style had a percentage next to it and also an understanding of what exactly it is below the scores. When I took the learning

    According to The Vark learning styles questionnaire the two learning styles that I learn best with best are aural and kinesthetic. Aural means I learn best when hearing the information spoken and by asking questions about the concept I am learning. The other way I learn best is being kinesthetic which means I use my five senses and hands on experiences to help me learn. The Aural side of me likes to remember stories, examples, and jokes, to be to relate them to the concept I am learning. I have found that I when attended class and really focus on what the instructor or professor is teaching I am able to grasp the concept that is being taught.…

    According to the Learning Styles Inventory. My most developed and strongest learning styles are bodily-kinesthetic, verbal-linguistic, musical, interpersonal, and intrapersonal. The test reveals that I am not highly developed in any particular type of intelligence and I am weak and underdeveloped in visual-spatial, logical-mathematical, and naturalist intelligences. The book suggests that as a person with stronger interpersonal strengths, study strategies such as going over notes with fellow students are helpful. Based on my results as a strong verbal-linguistic individual, rewriting my notes in order to eliminate excess information and to hone into the important ideas, would be beneficial to my success in this course.…

    For both assessments I was given similar types of questions, however the format was different. The first assessment consisted of picking one answer out of the three choices given and for the second assessment I was told to pick multiple answers based on what statements I agreed with. I believe that the second assessment was more accurate for the fact that it did not limit my choices as the first learning style test did. It did not restrict me to any other choices that I may also have agreed with and I believe that is why my results on both tests were…

    The Kolb Learning Styles Inventory is something new to me. I have never seen anything like this until I took this class. When they had us take the test to find out our learning patterns, I was excited to learn what my patterns consisted of.

    The results from the “learning style inventory” test told me a lot about my preferences. For example, I prefer to sit down and not move around to learn. I also prefer doing things on my own. Learning is very important to me and I get satisfaction as a result of a successful learning experience. I have a low tactile which means it is not important for me to touch or feel things in order to learn about them.…

    Introduction In alignment with the goal of giving all students exposure to and preparation for success in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) careers, kindergarten students were given the opportunity to learn how to code. It was a compelling program for the students, but as with any technology, there were risks to assess and mitigate before allowing the students to use the software and tablets. Volunteers were used to help introduce the students to the software and allow for more one-on-one and small group support than the teacher could provide on her own. However, the volunteers would not be familiar with the software or with how to safeguard the children when using technology during instruction.…

    My finding from the self-assessment comes as no surprise. I have a kinesthetic learning style, but both visual and auditory styles are close behind, I have become flexible in learning styles, depending on the subject I am studying will determine the type of style works best to obtain the most of the information, for example, I will gain more on new work instruction at work by practicing the process several times before I am comfortable; although, when learning stories from the bible, I pick up more by discussing the topic with other church members during bible study. I am a visual learner for standardized information, I absorb best by reading the information. My temperament is a director, again, this comes at no surprise. I am a result-driven…

    Introduction Effective curriculum, lessons and assessments are some of the many things that teachers are constantly improving. These changes are usually made to help improve learning and performance in students. With the never ending to-do-list that teachers have, making changes to meet the needs of every student can seem like a never ending task. Mary Ann Corley (2015) believes “the challenge is for teachers to ensure that the needs of all learners are equally valued and equally served”. Despite the time constraints that many teachers feel it is important that lessons are differentiated to help students be successful.…
