If you have a strong preference for Kinesthetic
learning you should use some or all of the following:
- all your senses - sight, touch, taste, smell, hearing ...
- laboratories
- field trips
- field tours
- examples of principles
- teachers, coaches and trainers who give real-life examples
- applications
- hands-on approaches (like in computing)
- trial and error
- collections of things - rock types, plants, shells, grasses, case studies...
- exhibits, samples, photographs...
- recipes - solutions to problems, previous exam or test papers.
SWOT - Study without tears
Reduce your notes into a package that you can learn by reducing them (every three pages down to one page).
- Your notes to help your learning may be poor because the topics were not 'concrete'
or 'relevant'.
- You will remember the "real" things that happened.
- Put plenty of examples into your summary. Use case studies and applications
to help with principles and abstract concepts.
- Talk about your notes with another "Kinesthetic" person.
- Use pictures and photographs that illustrate an idea.
- Go back to the laboratory or your laboratory manual.
- Recall the experiments, the field trip, the occasion...
- Write practice answers, paragraphs...
- Role play the exam or test situation in your own room.
- Apply the question to an experience that you have had.
You want to experience the exam so that you can understand it.
The ideas on this page are only valuable if they sound practical, real, and relevant to you.
You need to do things to understand.
