Kolb’s Learning Style Inventory

Someone who is a Doer and an Accommodator

- Experimentation- Project work

- Actively engaging in class discussions

- Use fact based experience to learn well

- Practicing skills- Group discussions

My main learning types are kinesthetic, and a visual learner. My learning style is someone who

is a hands on, visual learner. I struggle with lectures and readings, and often take on too

much responsibility. For tests I cannot “wing it,” I need to take time to study before the test. I

work much better with people and communicating with others. I excel at

assignments that include group work or experimentation, and do well on tests that

include true or false and multiple choice questions. Being a visual learner I tend to day

dream, which for me to do better I need to maintain focus on the lectures.
