Tally your responses by adding up only the YES answers. Put the number of the question in
the appropriate box. For example, if you answered questions number 9 with a yes, write 9 in
the VISUAL box. If you answered number 11 with a yes, write number 11 in the
AUDITORY box. If you answered number 7 with a yes, write 7 in the KINESTHETIC box.
Add up the number of questions in each box and write a total for each one. This will
determine your preferred learning style. Do not worry if a dominant mode doesn’t emerge.
You are a versatile learner!Use the knowledge you gain to create excellent study tools, the
ones that are right for you. Chart your answers below.

Visual Style: Questions 1, 4, 9, 10, 13, 16, 19, 24, 25, 28

Auditory Style: Questions 2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 18, 20, 23, 26, 29

The highest score indicates your preferred learning style. If you have a high score in more
than one area, you’re using additional modalities. Remember that there are no wrong
answers to this inventory. Everyone is an individual and has her own style of learning.

Characteristics of Visual, Auditory, and Kinesthetic Modes

• Visual learners need to see information. If your preferred style is visual, you have
strong visualization skills and can remember objects, shapes, and pictures. You learn
by reading, and by watching films, videos, and demonstrations. You can see pictures
in your mind.
• Auditory learners need to hear information. If your preferred style is auditory, you
have a “good ear” and can hear differences in tones and rhythm. Reading out loud
will be beneficial. You can remember what you hear in a lecture.
• Kinesthetic learners need to be physically active and doing things. If your preferred
style is kinesthetic, you are a hands-on learner. You have good coordination and learn
by doing. You generally have an active approach to learning.
Note:
I got higher score in visual learning. For me, learn and study by watching video lecture really
help me to understand about subject in my course.

Academic Integrity & Performance
• GPA Worksheet
ACTIVITY 7.1 GPA WORKSHEET

What does GPA stand for?

➢ Grade Point Average

Example of GPA:
HOW TO CALCULATE GRADE POINT AVERAGE (CGPA)
-Example of basic formula calculating GPA

-Here is the example of student credit hours, grade points and grade earn:

This student gets 16 Credit hours and 33 grade point. Using the formula and information
given above, calculate the GPA.

Therefore, if the student fails a class, he or she will not earn any grade points in that semester.
However, the credit hours that the student attempt is still included in total credit attempted for
that program. This is why the GPA can fall when the student fails a class.
