Learning Style Inventory

This document provides a learning styles inventory to help assess a learner's preferred learning style. The inventory consists of 24 questions to determine if the learner's style is visual, auditory, tactile/kinesthetic, or a combination. It notes that no studies have validated the inventory, and its main benefit is to get the learner to think about how they learn best rather than rigidly classify them. The results will indicate if the learner is primarily visual, auditory, tactile/kinesthetic, or a combination based on their responses to help them develop effective learning strategies.
