Three Types of Learning Style

This document discusses three learning styles: auditory, visual, and kinesthetic. It provides hints for recognizing each style and suggestions for how to integrate them into the learning environment. Auditory learners often talk to themselves and do better hearing information. Visual learners benefit from visual aids like graphs and outlines. Kinesthetic learners learn best through touch and movement, and may doodle or use colors when taking notes. The document recommends activities, materials, and techniques tailored to each style, such as explanations, discussions, visual presentations, hands-on work, and note-taking aids.

Hints for
Recognizing and Implementing
The Three VAK Styles

Auditory Learners
Often talk to themselves.
They also may move their lips and read out loud.
May have difficulty in reading and writing tasks.
They often do better talking to a colleague or a tape

recorder and hearing what was said.

How to integrate this style into the learning


environment?

Begin new material with a brief explanation of

what is coming.
Include auditory activities. Leave plenty of time

to debrief activities. This allows them to make


connections of what they have leaned and how it
applies to their situation.

Have the learners verbalize the questions.


Develop an internal dialogue between yourself

and the learners.

Visual Learners
Visual-Linguistic

- like to learn through written language


ex. reading and writing tasks.
Visual-Spatial

- have difficulty with the written language and do


better with visual materials.
ex. charts, demonstrations, videos

How to integrate this style into the learning


environment?

Use graphs, charts, illustrations, or other visual


aids.

Include outlines, concept maps, agendas,

handouts, etc. for reading and taking notes.

Include plenty of content in handouts to reread


after the learning session.

Leave white space in handouts for note-taking.

Invite a questions to help them stay alert in


auditory environments.

Post flip charts to show what will come and what


has been presented.

Have them draw pictures in the margins.

Have the learners envision the topic or have them


act out the subject matter.

Kinesthetic Learners
Kinesthetic (movement)
Tactile (touch)

- They do best while touching and moving.

- They tend to lose concentration if there is little or


no external stimulation or movement.

- When listening to lectures they may want to take

notes for the sake of moving their hands.


When reading, they like to scan the material first,

and then focus in on the details(get the big picture


first)
- Typically they use color high lighters and take notes
by drawing pictures, diagrams, or doodling.

How to integrate this style into the learning


environment?

Use activities that get the learners up and moving.


Play music, when appropriate during activities.
Used colored markers to emphasize key points on

flip charts or white boards.


Provide highlighters, colored pens and/or pencils.
