Learning Styles

The theme of last tuesday's class was Learning Styles

Learning styles refers to the preferential way in which student absorbs, processes, comprehends and retains information. Individual learning styles depend on cognitive, emotional and environmental factors, such as the experience of each individual. 

It's important understand the differences in learning styles, to implement best practice strategies into the daily activities.

Likewise exist three tipes of learning styles:

1. Visual: Use images, maps and graphics to access and understand new information.

2. Auditory: Use music, sound and rhythms to access and understand new information.

3. Kinesthetic: Use body, hands and sense of touch to access and understand new information.


Then the professor give us a test to discovering our own learning style and my results were:

Visual: (9) points = Less frequently used modality.
Auditory: (14) points = Preferred learning style.
Kinesthetic: (13) points = Frequently used modality.

Now that i know which is my learning style, i'm going to start to implement new strategies for my learning.
