Thinking Through Undergraduate Student Learning - Learning Styles
Submitted by Anonymous on Mon, 2008-09-29 09:40.
What do you know about how students learn?
There are 3 main learning styles: auditory, visual and kinesthetic. Keep this in mind when planning your tutorial groups. It may be helpful to ask students to consider their own learning styles. Once aware of how they best learn, they may be able to have more input in how you facilitate their learning. Students may be interested in the following learning style questionnaire from the University of South Dakota:

By considering their learning style independently and outside of the classroom, students can then apply this understanding to other areas of their personal and academic development.
