Medical Video: Discover your unique LEARNING STYLE: Visual, Auditory, Kinesthetic
What will you feel when the exam season arrives? Are you panicking with the coming of material or slidethick that you have to understand in just a few hours? Using the appropriate learning style, can help overcome your problem. Knowing what learning styles are right for you does not mean limiting your ability, it tends to help learning more effectively and efficiently.
What is the VAK learning style model?
The VAK learning style model is a model developed by psychologists in the 1920s, by approaching using the most important sensor receiver in your brain, namely visual, auditory and kinesthetic. Based on this model, generally a person has one learning style that is most suitable for him, so that the learning style will be the most dominant you use. But in its application, combining several learning styles is often found.
Visual learning style
A learner with a visual approach, will study a material by relying on their senses of vision and imagination. If you are a user of this approach, you might be inclined to rewrite the material that you get in your own language or maybe occasionally use graphics, diagrams, or an image. Usually you will also be easy to remember the new path you are going through and recognize new faces.
A learner with a visual approach also tends to choose to make small notes in helping him learn.
Auditory learning style
A learner who uses an auditory approach, will tend to more easily capture a hearing aid material. If you are a user of this approach, you may realize that you often memorize a material by making a sound, or even you learn a material by listening to the teacher's voice when giving the material, which you have already recorded. Usually you will also enjoy discussing with others.
Kinesthetic learning style
A learner with a kinesthetic approach will usually stimulate the ability to understand in him with movement and touch. If you are a person with this learning approach, you can ask a friend of yours, if you often talk to him along with the emergence of a body movement. This situation indeed often occurs to someone with a kinesthetic learning type.
Which learning style are you?
In helping you find out which learning approach you are, there are a number of questions you might ask yourself such as:
- If you get lost in a city one night, how will you find your way home? Are you going to use a map (visual), ask someone (auditory), or keep going until you find someone or something that can help you (kinesthetic)?
- What is your style in presenting? Do you tend to use graphics and diagrams (visual)? Will you put more emphasis on the words you use (auditory)? Or you will tend to include participants (kinesthetic)?
