Kinesthetic learners
learn best by moving their bodies, activating their large or small
muscles as they learn. These are the "hands-on learners" or the "doers"
who actually concentrate better and learn more easily when movement is
involved. These learners benefit from physical activity, hands-on
tasks, and constructing things. These students are able to express
ideas through movement. They like to act, manipulate objects, operate
the mouse, take pictures, and be involved physically in a project.
These learners enjoy
interacting with other students. They enjoy discussions, cooperative
work, and social activities. These students will love web 2.0 tools
that allow them to interact with others on projects.
These learners learn
best through meta-cognitive practices. They enjoy thinking about their
thinking and reflecting on learning. Allow these students to think
about what they are learning with reflective tools such as blogs and
wikis that can be shared with others later.
These learners love
numbers, reasoning, and problem solving. These students enjoy
measuring, calculating, and organizing data. In the classroom students
will shine when given tasks such as collecting data, conducting
experiments, solving problems, predicting, classifying, and sequencing.
These learners learn
best through auditory experiences. They enjoy making songs, rhythms,
and patterns. These students will appreciate displaying knowledge with
audio and video recorders.
These learners learn
from interactions with the environment they enjoy field trips that
involve observation of the world around them. These students will enjoy
activities that incorporate nature.
These learners enjoy
learning through speaking, writing, reading, and listening. In the
classroom setting these students shine when given tasks such as taking
notes, researching, listening, reading for information, and writing.
Websites to encourage learning for Verbal-Linguistic students: Websites such as http://wordle.net allow students to express themselves creatively with words.
If you use the
visual style, you prefer using images, pictures, colors, and maps to
organize information and communicate with others. You can easily
visualize objects, plans and outcomes in your mind’s eye. You also have
a good spatial sense, which gives you a good sense of direction. You
can easily find your way around using maps, and you rarely get lost.
When you walk out of an elevator, you instinctively know which way to
turn. The whiteboard is a best friend (or would be if you had access to one).
You love drawing, scribbling and doodling, especially with colors.
These students love to illustrate projects, color-code, and create
visuals for projects.
