Development Note: Please read the Introduction as it brings up some important points about learning styles. To learn more about VAK please read, Visual, Auditory, and Kinesthetic (VAK) learning styles. This survey is designed to help you gain an understanding of learning styles so that you can incorporate the various learning styles in your daily learning activities. It is NOT meant to show you your best way of learning as the research does not promote it. Rather, it is a tool for learning-to-learn (metalearning) that increases self-awareness about your strengths and weaknesses. For a learning style survey based on the two continuums of Processing and Perception, see the Learning Style Survey. VAK Survey Read each statement carefully. Answer honestly as there are no correct or incorrect answers. Once you have completed all 36 statements (12 statements in three sections), total your score in the spaces provided below. Section One - Visual _____ 1. _____ 2. _____ 3. _____ 4. _____ 5. _____ 6. _____ 7.
Learning Styles Quiz Complete this quiz with your child, selecting the statements he agrees with. Understanding Learning Styles Most people use a combination of learning styles but have a clear preference for just one. Understanding your child’s learning style can make it easier for you to communicate with your child and can help reduce frustration at homework time. If your child selected mostly auditory learning statements, he is good at absorbing information from spoken words and may understand instructions better if they are read aloud. If she chose mostly kinesthetic learning statements, she prefers to be active while studying and may not be able to focus while sitting still.

Do You Know Your Middle Schooler's Learning Style? Almost two decades after Howard Gardner identified multiple intelligences in his ground-breaking book Frames of Mind (1983), educators around the world are using the theory of multiple intelligences in their classrooms. In some ways, parents and teachers have always intuitively known that children learn in different ways and that an activity that grabs one child may not be of interest to another youngster. But many of our traditional ideas about teaching imply that there is a certain way to learn particular skills. As parents, we've all had times when we've become frustrated by our children's apparent inability to accomplish a task the way we were taught to do it. When we have a better understanding of their individual intelligences and learning styles, we can provide experiences that speak to how our children learn best. The eight intelligences are: To understand your child's learning style, observe her as she plays. Linguistic What it is: Sensitivity to the meaning and order of words.
