Learning theories

When I learn I am more of a visual learner.  I am also a logical learner.  I like to look at maps, pictures, see videos and see examples of problems.
 Vicki Sheafer has discovered that students can learn classic learning theories through service learning.  The students can learn by doing service projects that help them and those in the community.  They are helping themselves by applying what they learned in psychology - learning theories to service projects in the community.
I took a test to learn my learning style and here are the results.

Learning Styles Results

Results for: Thomas D. Baker ACT X REF 11 9 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 7 9 11 <-- --> SEN X INT 11 9 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 7 9 11 <-- --> VIS X VRB 11 9 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 7 9 11 <-- --> SEQ X GLO 11 9 7 5 3 1 1 3 5 7 9 11 <-- --> If your score on a scale is 1-3, you are fairly well balanced on the two dimensions of that scale. If your score on a scale is 5-7, you have a moderate preference for one dimension of the scale and will learn more easily in a teaching environment which favors that dimension. If your score on a scale is 9-11, you have a very strong preference for one dimension of the scale. You may have real difficulty learning in an environment which does not support that preference. I learned from this questionnaire what I already knew.  I am a reflective learner.  I am well balanced sensing and intuitive learner.  I am a visual learner.  I also have a moderate preference for being a sequential learner.  I love the videos for Dr. Lambs class as well as the visuals.  This test was spot one.  I am glad I found it.
