Visual - Auditory - Kinesthetic (VAK) Learning

Visual learning takes complex concept and makes them explicit, thus more accessible to a greater number of students. The act of creating visual representation so their thinking helps students involve a kinesthetic element to processing new ideas. If students then have an opportunities to share their visual thinking with a partner(s) or present to classmates, they have embeded new information in their brains in the three primary methods required for storage - visual processing, auditory processing and kinesthetic processing. Information is then stored through three different pathways, strengthening the storage itself and facilitating increased access for retrieval. Below are resources to try out VAK.
