What Is Your Intuition About Your Learning Style?
Your learning style may be defined in large part by the answers to four questions:
1. How do you prefer to process information: actively—through engagement in physical activity or
discussion? Or reflectively—through introspection?
2. What type of information do you preferentially perceive: sensory (external)—sights, sounds, physical
sensations? Or intuitive (internal)—possibilities, insights, hunches?
3. Through which sensory channel is external information most effectively perceived: visual—pictures,
diagrams, graphs, demonstrations? Or verbal—words, sounds? (Other sensory channels like touch, taste,
and smell are relatively untapped in most educational environments, and are not considered here.)
4. How do you progress toward understanding: sequentially—in continual steps? Or globally—in large jumps,
holistically?
