Answer 1

“Learning is the process whereby knowledge is created through the transformation of experience” (Kolb, 1984, p. 38). “Individuals use learning to adapt and manage everyday situations, giving rise to different styles of learning”

Visual learners like to see what they are studying and prefer to have written directions. Taking notes to understand is a very important component to visual learners. During a lecture, students need to take notes to understand and remember what was said. Visual learners are good at remembering what they have read.

Study tips:

• Create a mind map to draw relationships between parts
• Highlight important aspects or areas that need more attention while studying notes
• Use charts and flash cards to visually diagram and see the information
