something_different Report post Posted July 24, 2009 quiz my results were: Doing - 88% Visual - 63% Hearing - 6% (lol guess i don't listen much!) Doing learning style You need to receive information through touch and feel and learn best from hands-on work and movement. Visual learning style You need to see information in a visual format and learn best from written information, diagrams, and pictures. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mumble Report post Posted July 24, 2009 Erm ... is no-one going to question why their results do not add up to 100%? These numbers are completely nonsensical and have no actual meaning - you cannot even derive a true relationship as we are not told what each is a percentage of. All I can say is that I am more visual than auditory (by their analysis) but it says nothing about how much more, whether this is significantly more, or what it means. Anyway, artificially segregating auditory, visual and kinaesthetic so called 'learning styles' has no cognitive neuroscientific basis and much of what is 'known' is based on myths sold to teachers (and in some cases parents) by companies who are more interested in money than supporting individuals' learning. All current research suggests that you need to have input from all three approaches to be able to learn at your best. *Jumps down off soap box* :bounce: BTW, I'm not having a go at anyone here or the OP, this is just one of my 'things' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
something_different Report post Posted July 24, 2009 (edited) i think each section is out of 100. so each is taken as a seprate percentage which is why it does not add up to 100% if you know what i mean. so mine were Doing - 88% so thats 88/100 Visual - 63% then 63/100 Hearing - 6% and 6/100 plus tiz only a bit of fun anyway.

Kathryn Report post Posted July 24, 2009 Erm ... is no-one going to question why their results do not add up to 100%? No - because I live in a world where nothing ever adds up... . I agree with the rest of your post. I think I use elements of all types of learning, sometimes more than one at once, according to what I'm learning. That's why I found the questions difficult to answer. K x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mumble Report post Posted July 24, 2009 Hearing - 6% and 6/100 plus tiz only a bit of fun anyway. So what is the other 94%? Not hearing? I know many of these quizzes are only a bit of fun and you posted it with those assumptions (and I'm certainly not having a go at you), but this website doesn't claim it to be a bit of fun and indeed makes links with careers for instance.

call me jaded Report post Posted July 24, 2009 I see it as self-awareness, knowing what tools for learning will suit you (or employers can use for training). There's no point in giving me a training podcast to listen to when a DVD will be much more effective. Differentiation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
