How+We+Learn

After looking at the test results I feel that for the most part this test accurately described my learning style. I have read the posts and replies and I see that many people do not feel this way. In particular the Sensing and intuitive marks were almost spot on (at least how I feel about my learning). In sensing I received a 7 and when I read the compare and contrast between the two it reminded me of myself exactly. In the active/reflective I received a score of 1 on the active side which also seemed appropriate. In the visual verbal I received a score of 3 on the visual side again fairly accurate. Finally on the sequential and global I received a 1. So basically other than the sensing score of 7 I am a fairly well balanced learner according to the style result explanations. I feel that on all points this test was reasonably accurate.

Now the question is how useful is this information. I believe that it can be very useful. Knowing how you learn or rather how you dont learn (at least not as effectively) can be empowering. This information would be nice for a teacher to have on their classroom as well. Suppose a test was given to determine each persons learning style at the beginning of a class. Then the information was graphed, charted, or used in some other way so the teacher could get a good feel for the general learning style of the class. Then maybe the teacher could implement a teaching strategy geared towards the classes learning style. Of course a teacher should never focus on one particular style, but gearing towards the majority may be benificial. This is just a conjecture and a ptoential discussion point however and not my official opinion. Dan
