learning analysis
����������� Do you know how you learn best? Well, if you are like me then no. I took two questionnaires that were made to help you find the best learning style. The VARK questionnaire focuses on visual, aural, kinesthetic, and read/write learning style. On the other hand, HBDI contains feelings, thinking, doing and innovating learners. These two questionnaires were made to �find your strengths and weaknesses in your� learning style, working style, and living style. ���������
����������� According to the results of the VARK learning test, I found out, I learn best when things are given to me in a visual form. Flow charts, power points, and underlining text are some ways of visual learning that work best for me. In my writing class the professer created a flow chart that follows the process of writing a paper. I also do SQ3R when reading a chapter or two out of the text book. �Aural learning had to be my lowest score. Aural learning deals with hearing, joining in on class discussions, attending class, listen to examples and stories. A big tip for aural learners is to summarize notes on tape and listen to them.� Thats a big help, I use that learning style in my eng 05 class, the teacher will help us put the vocabulary words and the defenions on tape. Reading/writing I have a little more trouble with. Some ways to help me learn through this mode are writing out words over and over, and the more you read the better you become. I enjoy being a kinesthetic learner which deals with being hands-on, trial and error and understanding lectures that are related to real-life examples. I plan my life as I planned the puzzle was a game I played to look outside the box at how I?m planning my life. I learn from hands-on activities in my writing class when we get to use computers and play little life lesson games.
����������� � �According to the results of the HBDI inventory I lean most strongly toward the innovating mode, also noticeing that the doing range is a slightly lower score, but feeling and thinking are still ways for me to learn. For me being a innovating learner, I enjoy seeking new possibilities, and imagining unseen futures, adding to that, being a feeling and thinking learner I like being able to have personal connections and an emotionally supportive environment. I also enjoy, pondering facts and theories. Visuals aid and independent library research work as well too. Doing was my lowest scroce, so instructors who present factual information and practical skills step-by-step are not as effective me as seeking new possibilities. As a thinking learner I like to read the text book and when teachers use visual aid, when there doing lectures or problem solving.
����������� I feel that one of my teachers has the teaching style of the VARK questionnaire. He is my 109 teacher, he is very good at giving use a visual of his lesson. One day he had the class go on the internet and pick out pic of our goal. From there put our goals we picked out on the page so we have a visual of what we want out of life. My 109 teacher also teaches in a kenesthetic style, which deals with a hands-on approach. He is always thinking of new ways for use to look at things outside the box. We were put groups and were told to pick and or two puzzles.� Then put it to together, after that he asked the class, hoe we did the puzzle. He was showing use that the way use planned the puzzle is the way I plan my life.
����������� Now that i have shown you ways on how i learn best, dont you think you can do it. Learning your learning style is helpful at work, home, and school. Once you take these questionnaires you found  that you can learn out of you comfort zone. There are strageties in the quuestionnaires that help you work with other people.
