• If you haven't done so already, explore your own learning styles by taking the surveys at http://www.metamath.com//lsweb/dvclearn.htm and http://www.engr.ncsu.edu/learningstyles/ilsweb.html
• Read the descriptions and suggestions for all the learning styles at http://www4.ncsu.edu/unity/lockers/users/f/felder/public/ILSdir/styles.htm and the Learning Styles Handout.
• Write at least one page summarizing both Multisensory (input) and the Four Dimensional (processing) learning styles. Do you think the results of your surveys accurately reflect your style and preferences or not, and why? Which suggestions seem most useful for you? How will you help your students maximize their learning preferences in group and when studying?
