Learning journal unit 6 The results of the learning styles quiz reinforced what I already knew about myself, however, some results were surprising. My scores were pretty high concerning logical mathematical learning, but surprisingly low in musical. I always like to think of creative ways to tackle hard problems, which explains my love of puzzles and mysteries. However, I love listening to music, even though I never tried to write a song. Also, my scores were low for bodily kinesthetic and naturalistic. When I was younger, I did play a lot of sports, unfortunately I never was a good dancer. In regards to my being naturalistic, I can’t dispute the findings, even though every year I try to grow a little garden. The other categories I average
During these last two weeks, I was sick and after me, my wife was sick. Also, I am stressful, because we are planning to leave Brazil to try to live abroad, and the process with our documentation is a matter of concern.
Review the other learning styles: visual, aural, read/write, kinesthetic, and multimodal (listed on the VARK Questionnaire Results page).
“Tragedy of the Commons” means is a situation within a shared-resource structure where people act by themself without thinking about the common good used by others by depleting that resource through their action because of their own selfish gain.
The title of the text was about “One Summer Night” and Henry Armstrong who have died and was buried but did not believe that he has dead. This is was because that he was a hard man to convince (Bierce, 2010). However, he was not dead but “he was only very, very ill.” (Bierce, 2010). As it was a dark summer three people two college students and the other was a big negro who was known as Jess and he was working in cemetery (Bierce, 200). Therefore, three people tried to take Henry’s body out from the grave and when they open the grave Henry Armstrong sat up and hence, the three people were so scared and so they all fled on to a different direction.
Looked at the task for the week which was about GM motors and how people in America are stopping at buying there cars. (Found the assignment interessting and really enjoyed reading the other students posts and thoughts on the topic)
Fleming (2005) stated that people can be grouped into four styles of learning: (Gravells, 2012), Visual, Aural, Read / Write and Kinaesthetic (VARK), with Honey and Mumford (1992) suggesting that learners are a...
Secondly, the teacher gave us a test for my learning style. The results show, my learning style is visual. I was not surprising in the result because I know myself very well. I love to watch the video and we read books to help me on study. There are unique characteristics of Visual personality As Spanella T (for studay.com
There are seven general styles in which people learn: visual, aural, verbal, physical, logical, social, and solitary. Visual learners prefer pictures and images. They are most successful with art programs, and by relating the content to pictures. Aural learners
All learners have different learning styles. Using materials at the initial stage of the learning process can highlight preferred styles. Honey and Mumford show four learning styles – activists, theorists, reflectors and pragmatists, while VAK highlights visual, auditory and kinaesthetic preferences.

According to Fleming (2001): ‘People can be grouped by different learning styles, visual, aural, read/write and kinaesthetic.’
My primary learning style is by visual and hands on methods since I scored the highest in those two areas. The scores in these areas were very close to each other with the visual score being an 8 and the hands on score being a 7, while my listening score being the lowest; a number 4. I believe that it is important for me to know this information about myself because it gives me insights on what my strengths, habits, and weaknesses are while at the same time, enabling me to find learning styles and strategies that are best effective for me. Without knowing this information, I could study for an endless amount of hours on a subject and still fail the exam because there is no point in learning or studying if you don’t absorb and retain the information
I have always learned things by doing and I have always thought of myself as a thinker. The learning preference inventory has reassured me that this is how I am. If there is one thing I could change about these results, then it would be my innovative score, and the reason for that is because there is always a better way to do something.
The results of my self assessment were pretty accurate to what I know about myself. I have strong intrapersonal and interpersonal skills. I maintain strong relationships with others and think deeply about my life choices, goals, and ambitions. The only score that I thought would be higher was my musical score. I can play a musical instrument and I enjoy listening to music, but I don’t like to sing or play for others. Thinking back to my childhood, I was a linguistic learner. I followed directions well, if someone modeled how to do something, I could follow it and explain it back. I liked talking with someone personally to understand different concepts. The older I got, I was able to adapt to how my teachers’ taught. I had one teacher who loved using bodily-kinesthetic activities, I had other teachers who loved to sing and use logical-mathematical thinking. If I didn’t adjust to their styles of teaching, I wouldn’t have been successful in their class. I believe learning patterns can be altered because my learning pattern was altered. I’ve learned many different things from teachers who have different teaching styles. Teaching is an art and all teachers should use different teaching styles. Having a wide variety of teachers with different teaching styles made me a well rounded learner.
A) I expected to get artistic, creative and investigative as my results on surveys that I took, because I already knew I had these traits as a part of my personality. However, the results from my learning styles survey were a little surprising to me. I got visual as my highest total score, while kinesthetic and auditory were almost balanced out scores. The reason why I was a little surprised was that last year, I took a survey to figure out my learning style, and I got both auditory and visual learner. The results have their little differences, but that shows people do change over time. Learning styles can be learned and strengthened.
