●Learning Style Reflection
● Place a screen shot of your learning style
● What did you learn about yourself?
● How does that relate to our current situation
with online learning?
Honestly do not think of myself as a visual learner because I don't learn much when watching examples but I learned that I am partially a visual
learner. Learning online is completely fine to me even though the test shows that I'm a visual learner so I don't know if thats completely right.
