What Do You See?

If you are the kind of perso who picks up a book or a magazine and scrolls through, looking at the graphs, tables and headlines before you dive into the actual words in the article or chapter, then you are a visual learner.

You relate best to symbols, charts and diagrams and information that is presented in a hierachy of sorts. This does not necessarily mean videos and photographs but rather the holistic presentation of data and information.

Information presented like this will appeal to you the most.

Visual learners do not like information being presented to them in bits and pieces. They much prefer having the whole overview so that they can make their own interpretations.

Questions To Consider

When learning from the Internet I like:

• - audio channels where I can listen to podcasts or interviews.
• - interesting written descriptions, lists and explanations.
• - interesting design and visual features.
• - videos showing how to do or make things.

A website has a video showing how to make a special graph or chart. There is a person speaking, some lists and words describing what to do and some diagrams. I would learn most from:

• - reading the words.
• - listening.
• - watching the actions.
• - seeing the diagrams.
