Learning+style

===﻿I remember as a child building things with lego and building bionicles and trying to figure out how things work. I think I'm a hands on learner because I enjoy creating things. I think when my hands are active, I learn and remember more. I still remember some of the instruction manuals of some of the bionicles and how much fun they were to build and figuring out the different pieces and where they would go. I think being a hands on learner is something I truly am because I always enjoy doing hands on work and being able to create so I think that a hands on learner is what I am.=== ===Other than being a hands on learner I think I'm also an audio learner because I think when I listen to things I can also process them over in my head until I get a clear understanding. Sometimes when I listen to audio tracks for books I can often remember better maybe because of the way the person read as different characters but I think I can also retain information that way.=== ===I think least of all am I a visual learner. I don't retain information very well when I look at it. For example, if you show me a picture and then you move it away and ask me to describe that picture I will be able to give you very minor detail cause I don't retain information that well that way. But if you described the picture to me and then asked me to give you the picture I'm getting, I will be able to give you much more detail as opposed to being shown the picture.=== ===I'm not sure why my learning style is mostly hands on. Maybe it's because I enjoy creating things and when I enjoy something I'll learn from it. The other two ways of learning are not as easy for me but I still try and improve on my different ways of learning because maybe a teacher isn't going to give us a hands on exercise, it's going to be up to me to learn what he or she gives us so if I can learn better as the other two that might help me in future to learn better in class.=== ===I also have to adapt to the way other people learn and remember that if I'm in a study group, other people also have different ways of learning and I may not have the same one so being able to learn in different ways could help me to make a compromise in a study group with my friends so someone is not learning very well while the others are, which isn't very fair.===
 * Before we discovered what our learning style was, we had to answer a series of questions to determine what it was. The questions gave the result of you discovering wether you were an audio learner, which is someone who learns best when information is presented visually and in a written format, a visual learner, which is someone who learns best when information is presented visually and in a picture or design format or finally a hands on learner. I discovered that I wasn't an audio learner or a visual learner but I was a hands on learner. So, what is a hands on learner or kinesthetic learner? Kinesthetic learners learn best by moving their bodies, and they activate large or small muscles as they learn. We concentrate better and learn more easily when we are moving. I think I am a hands on learner cause I like to build things so I can use my creativity and test my ideas.**
