M3 Explain how an awarness of learning style can aid personal development

What learning styles are and why they are important?

There are four different styles of learning :  

Auditory learners will prefer to listen to things being explained than read about them. Other noises may become a distraction so they need a relatively quiet place. Visual learners prefer to learn by looking at graphics or charts but they may have difficulties focusing while listening to explanation .Kinaesthetic learners process information best buy using tools and doing practical. Sitting still while studying may be difficult but writhing things down makes it easier to understand.

What is VAK?

The VAK learning style is a combination between three methods of sensory learning:

-Visual (sight);

-Auditory (sound);

-Kinaesthetic (touch or motion).

What is VARK?

Designed to describe how four distinct types of learners process information. VARK stands from (Visual, Auditory, Read and Kinaesthetic).

One of the activities was to do the Hawaii Questionnaire to find out what type of learn I am.

Scoring after the Hawaii Questionnaire: 33 point Visual Preference.

After I finished the Hawaii Questionnaire I score 33 point and they matched my score with a visual style of student. I agree with the result but I think sometimes I’m a bit a tactile student because we studying ICT so sometimes I rather tacking notes on my computer then looking at graphs.
