M3

Evaluation
During this evaluation I am going to be explaining the different types of learning skills which include visual learning, auditory learning and kinaesthetic learning. I will be explaining what they are and how they work. I will also be explain which one I prefer to use and which one is more effective towards my learning. These techniques are used to learn new things

Visual learning is one of the main types of learning and is preferred by many people. Some people think it is easier and more effective to learn visually.  When you are being taught new information and you are a visual learner, it is easier for you to learn and remember what has been said and taught if you have seen it rather than if you have just heard it

Auditory learning is another type of learning style and it’s when people learn from listening. When you are learning by listening it’s important that the person needs to listen carefully to understand and to get all of the information. When using this learning skill people use a technique when they constantly repeat what they have heard in order to remember it and actually learn it. I do not like learning this way as it’s hard to remember all of the information no matter what it’s about. It also is a hard learning skill out of all of them because it’s mainly about memory.

Kinaesthetic learning is when you learn physically rather than listening or looking. Doing activities in order to understand them is what people do who prefer to kinaesthetically. They are commonly known as do-ers as not a high amount of people find this way useful. They find it easier than just sitting around listening to information or watching demonstrations they would understand more if they physically did it themselves.


When developing my skills I used visual learning because I find it easier to understand and comprehend when trying to learn something. However I also used auditory because its more clear when something is explained as well as demonstrated. It’s good to have a mixture of techniques because it makes learning easier. I also used kinaesthetic learning by actually practicing things, but my favourite way to learn is visually as its easier for me.
