Читать книгу Online Learning For Dummies - Susan Manning - Страница 65

Think back to how you learned in traditional school. Individuals access and process information in a variety of ways. In this section, we talk about how people learn. Knowing how you learn best can help you select the kinds of classes that best match your learning style — as well as help you target those study skills that are most effective for you.

Learning strategies can be described most simply by three preferences: visual, auditory, and tactile or kinesthetic. This means that you prefer to take in information using your eyes or ears or by physical movement. Your brain then helps you process information using your preference. That said, please be aware that not everyone agrees that learning styles make a significant difference in the quality of learning. It’s more an indicator of your preference.

Here are a couple online learning style inventories you can take to help you determine how you best learn (you can find others in a traditional web search of learning style inventories):

 Education Planner: See its inventory at www.educationplanner.org/students/self-assessments/learning-styles-quiz.shtml
