Questionnaire of learning style 1

LEARNING STYLES QUESTIONNAIRE
This questionnaire is designed to find out your learning style(s). Over the
years you have probably developed learning “habits” that help you benefit
more from some experiences than others. Since you are probably unaware of
this, this questionnaire will help you pinpoint your learning preferences so
that you are in a better position to select learning experiences that suit your
style.
There is no time limit to this questionnaire. It will probably take 10-15
minutes. The accuracy of the results depends on how honest you can be.
There are no right or wrong answers. If you agree more than you disagree
with a statement put a tick (√) by it. If you disagree more than you agree put
a cross (X) by it. Be sure to mark each item with either a tick or cross.
