Midterm: Kiesthetic Learning System

Decent Essays
Midterm Throughout the semester of being in engineering 102, I believed that I was a visual learner. I usually learned many subjects by looking at examples and how people do it step by step and then repeating it on my own. Through the quiz, it demonstrated that I was not only a visual learner, but also a kinesthetic learner. Visually seeing how people doing a problem step by step demonstrates a visual learning system, but doing the problem on my own demonstrates the kinesthetic learning system. What I usually do to study is the problems in the book until I feel as if I can do it with ease. I use this for my CECS 211 class, but when there is only a book and no questions in the back, I find methods to go through it. I strongly dislike reading,

This approach doesn’t always work how I hope it would as sometimes I feel that I do struggle to understand the assignment question, however I always try and persevere by reading and re-reading the assignment question and the relevant chapter in the study material.

    This course was defiantly different than what I originally thought it was going to be about. I think that every unit provided interesting topics as well as informative information regarding deviant and criminal acts/behaviors. The different theories to deviant and criminal acts/behaviors were very interesting to me because I like to learn how people do what they do. I also find it very interesting that as society changes, so does their thoughts on what is considered the “norm”, which then changes what is considered deviant. One suggestion that I would make is to have a textbook for the course.…

    Therefore, my teacher explained to me I was a kinesthetic learning I have a sense of feeling of it and seeing it visually instead of it just being auditory. I can use my learning style in college because when I am unsure of what the professor may ask, I may ask her to draw a picture when explaining. Most professors, I know are visual learners, thus most of their lessons are all in PowerPoint or they use the Smart Board when teaching. Overall, the professors at Broward College are very understanding. They recognize that every student learns a different and I really appreciate the different learning styles…

    Using an effective reading strategy is key to increasing reading comprehension. The SQ3R reading system, when mastered, will decrease the overall time that you spend on reading, interpreting and reviewing content. The SQ3R System is a 5 step active reading process that was developed by Francis Robinson(Van Blerkom, 1997) and intended to keep readers engaged in the material. Although it may seem time consuming, the overall study and comprehension time is actually minimized once the process is mastered.("Active Reading Method Like SQ3R," n.d., p. 5) Each step, along with a brief description is listed below; •Survey- Before you begin reading, survey all sections of the book or material paying attention to headings and the final paragraph.…

    This English 101 class has helped me in variety of ways in gaining and shaping skills in writing. I learned how do compose several types of essays including: professional, informal, casual, cause and effect, and argumentative and was given the format for writing these. Every week, the class was given one of these types of essay to write and throughout the class periods, I would start and finish them. I saw that if I outline these essays with key points of my topic before I officially being writing the first draft, an essay is not difficult to come up with. I would only have to include transitions, which I also learned, and maybe a few more sentences to make my ideas connect properly and flow smoothly.…

    In the lower grades, teachers used more hands-on methods and kinesthetic learners learned easily. But anatomy professors in college are less likely to focus on different the learning styles. The lecture portion of class is ideal for auditory learners and visual learners because they can listen to lecture and see PowerPoints but leaves very little room for kinesthetic learners. In college, kinesthetic learning is usually restricted to science, which makes the anatomy lab the perfect place to embrace it. By appealing to each of the learning styles in the anatomy lab, better learning and retention will take place.…

    No more just leaving them for ‘later.’ I started reading the books more, but not entirely. As time went on, I started to revert back into my old ways of just assuming everything will work out on its own. Next assignment came and I instantly regretted all my decisions about not reading all the books thoroughly. I still kept believing that I was invincible of failing and that I could manage to get that A. When I started doing the paper, I did not have enough knowledge of the books on my own, thus I used some summaries from the internet.…

    Not all learning styles can fit into a specific situation, there are times when a kinesthetic style is better than an aural. By becoming proficient in all learning styles, I would become flexible in all learning situations. The student should be able to shift towards the professors teaching styles in addition to exceling in their learning environment. Now, I work the best with the aural, kinesthetic, and read/write learning styles, with the weakest like being the visual learning style. By taking the content learned to the next level by shifting it across learning styles, I would gain a greater understanding towards it.…
