According to Felder and Solomon, the above learning style results show a moderate preference toward the active,sensing and visual dimension.The global and sequential dimension is fairly balance.In other words . I learn best  when i can see, hear and do something about the acquired knowledge in order to retain it.Brainstorming, group work,demonstrations, diagram, charts, handouts,models (dismantling and assembling) compliment my visual,auditory and kinaesthetic learning style.
