Based on the answers to my Baggio quiz, I am 56% visual, 24% auditory, and 20% kinesthetic in the way that I learn. I can't say that I am totally surprised by this, as I always do feel more confident when I can watch someone model a task or performance before tackling it myself, and generally, I do not go straight to reading the instructions. I'm quite like my students in that way, I guess. Throughout my innovative learning process, I've attempted many a new task, and luckily, most everything offers a visual aid such as infographic or a brief tutorial for guidance. In fact, one of the benefits of the Baggio text itself is that it provides visuals throughout, making the examples clear. Knowing this about myself is a nice reminder that my students need visuals whenever possible, and as I try to improve this on my end, I'm also asking them to do so in their own work.
