Sensory Preferences

Individuals tends to gravitate towards one or two


types of sensory input and maintain a dominance
in one of the following types.
Visual Learners
• These learners must see their teachers actions and
facial expressions to fully understand the content of
the lessons.

•  is a type of learning style in which students prefer to


use images, graphics, colors and maps to
communicate ideas and thoughts. Visual learners must
see information in order to learn it. These learners are
likely to have a photographic memory and may use
color, tone and brightness to recall information.
VISUAL ICONIC – those who prefer this form of input are more
interested in visual imagery such us films, graphic displays, or pictures in
order to solidify learning.

VISUAL SYMBOLIC – those who prefer


this form of input feel comfortable with abstract
symbolism such us mathematical formula or the
written word.
LOGICAL (mathematical)
• Logical learners succeed by using order, steps, and
logic. These learners can make connections and
recognize patterns with ease, and work well with
numbers. They have a very systematic approach to
learning and are excellent at keeping organized.
Text-heavy lessons may not be ideal for logical
learners; they prefer cutting to the chase and
focusing on facts.
AUDITORY LEARNLERS

THEY THROUGH VERBAL LECTURES , DISCUSSIONS TALKING


THINGS THROUGH AND LISTENING TO WHAT OTHERS HAVE TO SAY.

TWO CATEGORIES OF AUDITORY


LEARNERS:
1. LISTENERS- this is the more common type. They are more
likely do well in school. They remembered things said to them and make
the information their own.

2. Talkers – They are the ones who prefer to talk and discuss they often
find themselves talking to those around them.
TACTILE /KINESTHETIC
LEANERS
• Persons benefit much from hands on approach, actively exploring the
physical world around them.
• In this style, learning happens when the learner carries out a physical
activity, rather than listening to a lecture or watching a demonstration.
Those who have a preference for kinesthetic learning are called ‘do-ers’
and much prefer hands on learning. Kinesthetic learners make up about
five percent of the population.
• Kinesthetic learners are often interested in careers such as emergency
services, safety representative, physical education, or entertainment (such
as acting or dance).
Verbal ( Linguistics)
• Verbal-linguistic learners love both written and spoken word. They are
naturally drawn to language in general, which means there are plenty
of opportunities to learn.
• Techniques used by verbal learners involve mnemonics, scripting, role
playing and anything that involves both speaking and writing. Verbal
learners often pursue public speaking, writing, administration,
journalism or politics.
Social ( Interpersonal)
• Interpersonal learners are well known for their
ability to “read” people and are sometimes called
“people smart”. This unique ability helps them
understand what goes around them.
•  These types of students learn best through
communication with others, whether it’s verbal or
non-verbal. Social learners love being around
people, working in groups, teams and overall
thrives through social interactions.
Solitary ( Intrapersonal)

• A solitary learner, also known as an intrapersonal learner is


someone who prefers learning on their own. These types of
students are self-motivated, enjoy working independently,
and learn best when working alone.
• These are self-motivated learners that like to set individual
goals, and prefer to study by themselves with their own
thoughts and ideas rather than with others that intrude on
those thoughts. They are very self aware of their own
strength and weaknesses. Often times, these are introverted
individuals, but that is not always the case.
