When deciding on how to respond to all the information coming into your mind, utilizing this is the best way to make good choices?
Processing capacity
You learn best by doing, so find ways to become actively involved in what is going on in your class.
You tend to be easily distracted, so find a place to sit in your classes that minimizes those distractions and helps keep you focused on what the instructor is doing.
You remember best by direct involvement in what you are learning, so create your own learning activities that correspond to information you are trying to memorize.
You like to attack problems physically, so think of ways to turn all problems in a class into a physical activity.
You like to read stories with a lot of action, especially at the beginning, so ask your instructor to help you find these kinds of stories related to the subject you are learning.
You like writing and drawing, so use your iPad or paper and writing instrument to constantly engage in this activity while you listen to material being taught.
You like hands‐on activities with real objects that can be touched, so use Play‐Doh or something similar to create objects related to material you are learning.
You like interaction with others, so join small‐group discussions or learning‐teams.
You like creating things with your hands, so make charts, models, diagrams, etc. to help you connect to what you are learning.
You tend to learn best when your body is active, so try reading while working out on an exercise machine.
Kinesthetic
You learn best by seeing, so find a place to sit in your classes that allows you to see the instructor, whiteboard, and projection screen or monitor clearly.
You tend be quiet and become impatient when extensive listening is called for, so follow along in your textbook or hand‐outs during a lecture or presentation to help keep you involved.
You like to take notes, so do this during lectures and make sure to include drawing pictures to represent concepts.
You have greater immediate recall of information that is presented visually, so create flash cards with pictures on them to review things you need to remember.
You tend to solve problems deliberately, planning in advance and organizing your thoughts by writing them down, so make sure you allow yourself time to do this during a test or in preparation for a test.
You like to read stories with a lot of descriptions and narratives, so ask your instructor to help you find these kinds of stories related to the subject you are learning.
When you read something, you often like to stop and stare into space, imagining the scene, so take time to do this as you read rather than just “plowing” through the material.
You like to view DVDs, YouTube clips, pictures, or anything else you can see, so ask your instructor to help you find these kinds of visual sources related to the subject you are learning. You tend to benefit from visual emphasis as you read, so highlight important information as you read.
You tend to be easily distracted by visual stimuli, so avoid surfing the Internet, engaging in social networking, or looking at pictures other students have to show you on their cell phones, iPads, or computers during class.
Visual
You learn best by hearing everything that is going on, so find a place to sit in your classes that allows you to hear the instructor well and to participate in class discussions.
You tend to like talking about the pros and cons of a situation, so don’t be afraid to challenge ideas presented in class in an acceptable manner.
You enjoy listening but also cannot wait to get a chance to talk, so make sure you participate in class discussion.
You learn best by hearing things, so repeat words or descriptions out loud over and over when learning them.
You tend to move your lips or speak under your breath while reading, so don’t be afraid of this as you read.
You learn best by hearing things, so discuss class material with a friend or fellow student.
You acquire information better when it is presented orally, so make sure you attend lectures and presentations and do not rely solely on reading a textbook.
You respond best to information that is presented to you orally, so when you miss a class, try to get a hold of a podcast or recording rather than just getting someone else’s notes.
There is some evidence of left‐ or right‐ear advantage in listening tasks.
You tend to process verbal information more efficiently and accurately when you hear it with your right ear than when you hear it with your left ear, so sit in a class so that the instructor is located to your right.
