For example‚ in a history class when discussing Native Americans‚ a teacher

Learning Style Essay As a result of completing this unit on learning styles‚ I have determined that my style of learning is “Kinesthetic/tactile learner“(Kolb‚ 1984).This is based on completion of the Multiple Intelligence Survey (McKenzie‚ 1999) and Learning style Assessment (Kolb‚ 1984). This means that learning comes easily for me by touching‚ feeling‚ and applying what has been learned to something physical rather than sitting in a lecture hall or just reading a book.
