Auditory Learning
Doing the personal evaluation was harder than I expected it to be. Out of the fourteen statements I was unable to pick just A, B, or C. Eight of the statements have a dual answer.

The most effective way for me to learn information is the Auditory Learning Style and Kinesthetic Learning Style. As I read the tendencies for both the Auditory and Kinesthetic learning styles I checked each tendency that I do a daily basis and realized that it’s split down the middle.

As I was growing up I had a problem retaining information that I read. I would read a paragraph and forget half of what I read or just lose interest in it, then start over again.

My first grade teacher caught on to this. When she would read out loud I wouldn’t have any problems remembering what she said. She gave me two things to try. One was to read out loud and see if I remember the information I just read. Two was to read it then write it down. At times I would write the same thing down up to five times. By doing this I was able to retain the information.

I have learned that reading out loud, just loud enough so that all I hear is me. Reading out loud is like being at a lecture. As I am reading I am listening to it and am able to retain the information without repeating it.

As I read, I put what I read into a mental image of something that I have experienced or what someone told me they experienced

    Auditory Learners and their piece to the puzzle on one style of learning. It’s about going hands on. Remembering a picture in your head or possibly reading aloud because you feel like you are going to learn faster then reading silently. Will this type of learning style help an online college student? It would seem that an auditory learner would have to change or alter their learning style based upon this method of delivery.…

    Most people memorize certain things without even realizing it. They remember the information by constant mindless repetition. Another way of memorization comes from making connections to information with something that is related to it. However memorizing through relevance is a more recommended way in memorizing information.…

    When I was a child my mom would be the one to read to me, and it would mostly be before I went to bed. There were a few other times when she would read to me, like Christmas Eve night she would read me a Christmas book. The two main books I remember her reading to me were “The giving Tree” and “Love You Forever”. In the past, when I had to read, sometimes I would skim the book just to find the answers quick and easy. Other times I would read the selection, sometimes because I couldn’t find the answer from skimming. I was never taught any specific strategies for when I read.…

    Metacognition Essay

    Every time I think I always have to visualize whatever is being told to me, in subjects like math, English, and science I can never fully process the information sent to my brain without drawing out diagrams, pictures, or even letters. For example, whenever I take a math test, I would see an equation and with those variables I would copy them directly onto my unlimited supply of imaginary paper and solve there in my mind. If I happen to have trouble with a problem, then I resort to scanning any past experiences that I can visually remember that is moderately similar to the current problems, sort of like rewinding through a video but 16 years long. Since I only occasionally ask for help, the process of rewinding through past memories is very useful but can be malicious to my learning process because I some of the information I dig up can be incorrect.…

    One specific example I can use to explain my ability to memorize was though me experiences in my high school AP history classes. Over the course of my high school career I took 3 different AP history classes which included World History, US History and European History. I must admit I was a terrible student and I always slept in class and the only times I had received information was when I mindlessly took notes from the textbook for homework. However, I found it very odd because I retained and memorized this information very well and I was as a result able to write essays with ease and lots of information. I also sometimes wasn’t able to memorize a certain fact off the top of my head and say what Alexander Hamilton’s economic program was, because of how specific or vague the information would be, but when I took multiple choice tests I would read a question and the possible answers and something in my mind would become activated through association and I would then easily know which was the correct answer (which was to establish financial stability and credit of the new government). With that ability I was able to get a 4 and two 5’s on those history exams with very minimal studying and just relying on my ability to associate possible answers to a question. I’m sure…

    The first quiz I took was what is my learning style and I got auditory. I was very surprised that I got this as my result. I have always thought of myself as a visual learner. My score for auditory and visual we very close. Auditory learning was scored at 40 percent and visual was scored at 35 percent. I still view myself as a visual learner, but this quiz made me realize I also like to listen to lectures and hearing something a teacher says helps me understand. For the study habits quiz, my most efficient study habits are being somewhere quiet, being organized, and studying days before tests instead of the night before. I could definitely work on things like studying every day and taking practice tests. I really did not know how to study efficiently…

    First of all, although I read only a couple of books a year, I believe my strength in reading is repeating the same books over and over. For example, I’ve read my favorite book more than 100 times so far. Even though I know the whole stories, every time I read the same book, I can find new things that I could not recognize last time, which makes me understand the story better.…
