LEARNING STYLES
FOR

E/I
E/I:

Extraverted types learn best by talking and
interacting with others. By interacting with the
physical world, extraverts can process and make
sense of new information.

Introverted types prefer quiet reflection and
privacy. Information processing occurs for
introverts as they explore ideas and concepts
internally.
C OGNITIVE LEARNING STYLES
FOR S/N

S/N:

Sensing types enjoy a learning environment in
which the material is presented-detailed and
sequential. Sensing types often attend to what is
occurring in the present, and can move to the
abstract after they have established a concrete
experience.

Intuitive types prefer a learning atmosphere in
which an emphasis is placed on meaning and
associations. Insight is valued higher than careful
observation, and pattern recognition occurs
naturally for Intuitive types.
C OGNITIVE
LEARNING STYLES
FOR T/F

T/F:

Thinking types desire objective truth and logical
principles and are natural at deductive reasoning.

Feeling types place an emphasis on issues and
causes that can be personalized while they
consider other people's motives.
C OGNITIVE
LEARNING STYLES
FOR J/P

J/P:

Judging types will thrive when information is
organized and structured, and they will be
motivated to complete assignments to gain
closure.

Perceiving types will flourish in a flexible learning
environment in which they are stimulated by new
and exciting ideas.
