  • If your score on a scale is 1-3, you are fairly well balanced on the two dimensions of that scale.
  • If your score on a scale is 5-7, you have a moderate preference for one dimension of the scale and will learn more easily in a teaching environment which favors that dimension.
  • If your score on a scale is 9-11, you have a very strong preference for one dimension of the scale. You may have real difficulty learning in an environment which does not support that preference.

As you can see I am fairly well balanced throughout except for the Sen. This is obviously what I favour, and what I need to work on to become a more balanced to learning manager.

I have been researching the Learning Styles online and came across this quiz. I completed it online and it gives you an idea of the style of learning you prefer, this quiz helps you learn what your own individuals needs are. I found this invaluable as I can use the styles that best suit me to help me become a more effective learning manager. The quiz results are below:-
