There are various types of learning styles, primarily we focus more on Visual, Auditory and Kinesthetic learners. A visual learner is often addressed towards someone who learns quickly when they see pictures, maps, illustrations and videos. As for auditory learners they tend to focus more they hear sound, lectures, read aloud, helps them comprehend faster. While those two are main learning styles , kinesthetic learners understand better when they touch, make things, hands on activities rather than seeing or hearing it. I find myself more of a visual learner, in class I tend to understand better when slideshows are up with different graphs and pictures that have to do with the content. Watching videos during our lectures in this course was a great component to me because it made me see and process what it's about.
Hello Maria,
ReplyDeleteAs a premedical student, I have heard about the three types of learning styles. I was led to believe that only three learning styles existed. Reading this post and going through the lecture slides allowed me to explore the other types of learning styles. I love how you incorporated your own personal experience into this lesson. Great post!
