How well do you remember things?

A study was done some time ago on which methods help us retain information the most? There are 3 main leaning styles?

Visual

Auditory.

Kinesthetic

or said another way~ by seeing, hearing or touching.

With these 3 learning styles how well do we do we retain information after we receive instructions?

Method 1. Telling someone alone we tend to remember about 70% of what's been shared three hours later. Three days later about 10% of what was shared.

Method 2. Physically showing someone, when used alone, we tend to remember 72% of what's been shared three hours later. Three days later about 20% of what was shared.

Method 3. When a blend of telling and showing is used we tend to recall about 85% of what's been shared three hours later.Three days later about 65% of what was shared.

My summation of this is that no matter what you're learning style is, a blend of methods may work best for any of us. Another part to learning something is to have a desire to want to learn something new. If you are not excited about learning something new you probably won't enjoy it. As I shared before I was not so happy about blogging or doing anything online. Today I am much better ,but, I still have a long way to go. How about you?
