Identify
Through self-reflective activities, participants will identify their own learning style preferences
Be able to identify multiple learning styles (visual, audio, kinesthetic )
Craft activities with specific learning style focuses
Learning Style 1: Visual
Some learners better retain visual content. Visual content is associated with cognitive and psychological mechanisms. Applications of visual learning can range from detailed images to the use of different colors. Check out the video to the right for more examples!
+ Activity 1
Learning Style 2: Auditory
Auditory learning prioritizes sound associations. This can include podcasts, music, and sound effects. As a learning tool, sound can be isolated (like a podcast), or layered with other media forms (like in a video). How does sound affect your learning process? What are some other ways the podcast to the left could use sound in their explanation?
Learning Style 3: Kinesthetic
Some say the mind is like a muscle. As a result, the mind must be flexed regularly to retain learning. In the case of kinesthetic learning, hands-on experiences tend to be the best route. Sports, trade skills, and musical skills are examples of fields that already rely on kinesthetic learning methods by learning via physical practice. Complete the following actvity for your own kinesthetic learning experience!

Are you ready?
It's time for our first activity!
We just used a visual tool (a video) to convey visual learning. Pause the video, think about your field of study, and create a diagram with fill-in-blank components using a focus on a visual learning format. Consider:
- What are your core concepts?
- How can color and design concepts be used to assist in learning?
- How is information being organized?
