“That is what learning is. You suddenly understand something you've understood all your life, but in a new way.” ~Doris Lessing

To have an epiphany is a wonderful experience. Perhaps, the epiphany came about because it was presented in a learning style better understood by the learner?

What are learning styles:

How do you learn?

I have been blessed, I suppose, because I learn the way most teachers have taught over the years---lectures and reading books.

I've always found learning styles interesting. Thanks for posting this, Glok. I'm going to check out those links today.

I'm highly visual. In collage my notes were drawings of the main concepts and underlined vocabulary words specific to that subject.

I learn common sense thru mistakes and intellectual knowledge thru books. I suppose lots of us are like Pavlov's dog.

Coco the gorilla and some of those research chimps/monkeys are absolutely amazing. Dogs, dolphins are amazing, as well.

I have always needed the self-paced style, where I can go back and forth as often as necessary. I am somewhat learning disabled with mild dyslexia.
