Assignment AR 2 : Learning Styles
Learning Styles, Which One are You?
This week, as part of our MA assignments, we were asked to participate in a short questionnaire, to establish our learning styles. A very interesting and thought provoking exercise. I scored the highest in Activist mode, getting 8, which means that one is open minded and enthusiastic, but also that one can act first and consider the consequences later. I realised that I have done this on occasion, usually due to being unable to access little or no information on the procedure, at least that is how it felt at the time.
I also scored 6 in Reflector mode, and 3 each in Theoretical and Pragmatist modes. Reflectors enjoy gathering vast amounts of information and postponing any action as long as possible. This is also true in my case, I really love researching but sometimes have problems correlating all the information into a useful conclusion. So apparently some people can be multi-modal, therefore it is very useful to know which are your strongest modes in order to strategically adjust the weaker modes and fulfil your potential.
