VARK Questionnaire

As part of the Learning and Skills for Higher Education and Work i have to complete the VARK Questionaire that is designed to inform the quiz taker what type of learner they are. My results from the questionaire are as follows:
V - 5
A - 2
R - 6
K - 4

This shows that I am primarily a Read/Write learner, however the Visual and Kinestetic learning styles follow closely behind. However the test shows that I am definitely not an Aural learner.

Does this surprise you?
These results do not suprise me because i have always enjoyed more practical lessons during school and college and during teacher led lessons often been thinking about something else rather than the lesson at hand. I also prefer practical work because it give you the kind of experience and knowledge that you cannot learn from a textbook or computer screen. As an example from my Cisco IT Essentials lessons, I often struggled actually getting everything connected properly and on more than one occaision connected a cable the wrong way round which makes the device in question either function incorrectly or not at all. I can also give an example from my job where although I am given a map to learn a new route, I like to actually go and do it to learn it which has proved successful in the fact that my boss can ask me to cover any one of approximately 17 routes, and can visualise where i'm going and the quickest way about it straight away in my mind.

Which style of learning is your least favourite?
My least favourite style of learning by some margin is Aural which is listening to a lecturer or teacher. Unless the subject is reletively interesting, i often find that i do not take in information and instead it passes straight over the top of my head. One technique I could use to improve in this learning area is reading up on the lecture notes before the lecture, so i know what its actually going to be about and engage with what is being said more.
