VAK Questions
Updated Feb 2005 |
Thanks to Neil Whitmill for this
spreadsheet to help analyse children's learning styles. Neil
writes: Well, we are working on identifying learning
preferences of primary children and are trying to identify
visual, auditory and kinaesthetic learners. We found the
questions on the sheet somewhere and have adapted them for our
own use. The Excel spreadsheet highlights the results and gives
a visual feedback to the teacher of the preferences of each
child. Where one learning style is very weak, support may be
needed to make the learner able to access more of the curriculum
opportunities. This is not a perfect science, but is an
interesting indicator.
