What is Your Learning Style?

Often, when discussing the subject of learning,  we tend to think about the level of intelligence a person possesses. While this is true, it also depends on how well we understand our learning style and how well we implement our style of learning into the classroom and our study habits. There are three different learning styles: visual, auditory, and tactile/kinesthetic; we might favor one more than the others or learn best through a combination of all three. Understanding your learning style can lead to better study habits, better note-taking, and better classroom habits. Take this quiz to find out more about your learning style.
Upon reading the results of your quiz answers, you might be wondering what the results mean. According to Chegg.com:
Auditory Learners learn best by hearing: reciting information, avoiding loud places, using word association, group study sessions, and asking a lot of questions.
Visual Learners learn best by seeing: using charts and graphs, watching video tutorials, drawing visual outlines, color coding/highlighting, using images and pictures to retain information, and using flashcards
Tactile/Kinesthetic Learners learn best by doing: taking lab classes, role playing, taking frequent breaks, chewing gum while studying, and studying in groups. Tactile learners can also use a computer to reinforce learning (through sense of touch/typing), making them a perfect candidate for online courses!
These tips can be put to use to help you improve your study skills and your learning abilities overall. Take the quiz today and find out the best way to become the best learner you can be!
