Well Written Words Are Music
Learners who interpret most effectively in the area of reading/writing lean mainly twoards the written word.
Information that is written or presented in slide presentations and handouts will work best for these learners. They dive into online research and enjoy internet sources that are text-heavy.
In meetings, class and discussions, they would usually be the ones who are taking copious notes. This helps them to not only process the information and data but also to remeber it when necessary.
Consider These Questions
I prefer a presenter or a teacher who uses:
- - handouts, books, or readings.
- - demonstrations, models or practical sessions.
- - diagrams, charts, maps or graphs.
- - question and answer, talk, group discussion, or guest speakers.
I want to learn how to play a new board game or card game. I would:
- - read the instructions.
- - watch others play the game before joining in.
- - use the diagrams that explain the various stages, moves and strategies in the game.
- - listen to somebody explaining it and ask questions.
And finally, the Kinesthetic Learners.

Thank you Cassi for a post on a fascinating and far from simplistic subject. I say this because the sense preferences that we use for learning are a reflection of the senses we tend to use for communicating internally with ourselves (thinking) and externally, with other people. Understanding our own. and especially other people’s use of senses is a key to excellent communications.
Does that make sense to you?
