My Learning Preferences
Characteristics:
As an auditory learner one is able to learn by hearing and listening. Information is stored by remembering things by the way it sounds.
As a visual learner one learns by reading or seeing pictures. By closely visualizing information one is able the remember things but may have difficulty with spoken direction. As a visual learner it is easy to be distracted by sound.
Activities that I can do to learn better.
Auditory:
-
Sit where you can hear.
-
Use flashcards to learn new words; read them out loud.
-
Read stories, assignments, or directions out loud.
-
Study new material by reading it out loud
Visual:
-
Try to visualize things that you hear or things that are read to you.
-
Draw pictures to help explain new concepts and then explain the pictures.
-
Color code things.
-
Avoid distractions during study times.
One Example of How My Kindergarten to 12th Grade Classroom Learning Experiences Helped Me Learn
The Use of Diagrams helped me learn and remember from Kindergarten through 12th grade. Diagrams such as flowcharts, drawings or maps were simplified and used as a quick learning tool to resort to when you aren’t sure to do an assignment. Diagrams helped with my learning experience as I would vividly remember the information from the diagram during a test.
My Dominant Intelligences
My two most dominant types of intelligence are:
-
Naturalistic (Nature Smart): You like the world of plants and animals and enjoy learning about them
-
Visual/Spatial (Picture Smart): You will be good at art also good at other activities where you look at pictures like map, finding your way of mazes and graphs.
My Anticipated Results
I expected to be more Kinesthetic (Body Smart) where one will enjoy sports and are good at swimming, athletics, gymnastics and other sports. I expected that because I am athletic but I do agree with the results.
I agree with the inventory results that I am a Visual/Spatial Learner (Picture Smart) as I tend to remember information better by looking at images. When it is time to take a test, the image is stored in my memory. As for me being a Naturalistic Learner I agree with the inventory results to a certain extent as I would want to learn new things about the world.
