My Learning Style Analysis

Decent Essays
There are three main learning styles that people use on an everyday basis; Visual, tactile and auditory. Firstly, visual learning tends to be applied by people who like to see what they are learning. This learning style allows understanding and remembering of things by sight; a very hands-off concept. When in a learning situation, they receive a strong interpretation of content through reading or viewing pictures. It is common for these learners to memorize what they learned by closing their eyes and visualizing the subject (What's Your Learning Style?). Personally, this is my strongest learning style and I am able to learn by reading over notes, watching videos, and writing down key words or instructions. Also, a key component to this learning

    By competing the Honey and Mumford learning style questionnaire (2006), I have been able to understand a reflector is my dominant style of learning and activists to be my weakest style of learning. As a reflector, my learning normally begins at reflective observation stage (Fee, 2011). Fleming (2011) states that I observe, gather and evaluate information from a range of perspectives before acting. This learning style enables me to capitalise on reflective learning; through the evaluation of my work activities, I can identify which areas need to be improved as far as my clinical knowledge and skills are concerned. Moreover, this style supports collaborative learning and critical debate skills which are essential for palliative care practice…

    Whether it’s through graphs, reading aloud, or working with your hands, everyone has a unique way of learning. There are three main styles of learning: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. I myself am a visual learner, meaning that I understand information better when I can see it, but this doesn't apply to everyone. Auditory learners retain information that hey can hear, while kinesthetic learners are fond of moving and doing. Knowing these preferences teachers and students can come up with ways to structure classes and study that appeal to different needs.…

    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.…

    As a reminder there are three main types of learners: Auditory, Visual and Kinesthetic. I think that being an auditory learner is probably one of the learning styles I use a lot but I do not think that it is my overall best learning style because I feel that I am more of a hands on type of learner. Being a good listener and absorbing information are great skills to have when in a learning setting so that you can retain the most information as possible. We all have different ways in which we learn best but we need to use a combination of different learning styles to get the most out of your learning experience.…

    I rely on several strategies to help me learn. First, I always make flashcards after reading chapters from books or after lectures. Even if I do not have time to study from them, simply writing out the definitions, dates, or names helps me to remember them. I use different colored cards for different chapters and subjects. For example, my occupational therapy flashcards are green and my psychology flashcards are white.…

I scored the following; 42 in reflective observation, 34 in active experimentation, 23 abstract conceptualization, and 20 in concrete experience. I discovered that my style of learning is diverging. After reading the definition about diverging style it does sound like how I like to learn.…

    Mostly everyone would agree that a child’s education is critical to their development as a scholar. On the contrary would most people agree that how our next generation is taught will influence not only their academic success but also their motivation and behavior? Educators of past generations typically conformed to the “one size fits all” model of teaching which resulted in predominantly lecture style teaching. George Fox Professor, Donna Webb (2016), says we have made great advancements of transitioning from teachers being “’the sage on the stage’ to a more appropriate student-centered learning environment.” The more this topic of teaching styles came up in my life, the more interested I became.…

    Everyone has a different learning style whether you are a visual learner, an auditory learner, or a tactile learner. I took a quiz on www.educationplanner.org that told me I am a visual learner, “As a visual learner you learn by reading or seeing pictures” (www.education planner.org) I could not agree with this statement anymore, I always have to see pictures it helps so much when I am studying and reading things helps me be able to look back and picture what I was reading in my head. I also looked at the other types of learning styles on this website and I have to say some parts of the auditory and tactile learning styles describe me also like reading out loud sometimes to remember things better like an auditory learner or touching and doing like a tactile learner…
