VARK ANALYSIS PAPER

VARK introduction

One of the most revered learning models VARK model. Neil Fleming designed it in 1987

individually as a form of inventory that allows learners to know about their learning styles. VARK

is an acronym which means Visual, Aural, Read/Write and Kinesthetic. The acronym explains

how it aids students to know styles of learning and effective communication. Thus, Fleming

suggests that when an individual comprehends another person style of learning, they will perform

excellently. The VARK model helps in describing the learning style of individuals which is quite

different from other persons. VARK is designed to help people have a full understanding of other

people's learning styles, and it ultimately helps them in studying effectively. VARK's

Questionnaire helps in determining the kind of learning style suitable for a person.

Critical scrutiny of VARK Questionnaire tells people the type of learner they are. Some learners

are multimodal, and they give attention to multimodal materials, and it indicates interest in

changing the style based on motivation and interest. A multimodal learner may learn using

different methods. VARK stated that multimodal learners are not restricted to a method of learning,

but they are flexible at changing styles and acquiring knowledge.

Multimodal learners are of two types; the first are those who can easily utter their mode of learning

styles and their communication choices and also their team of students or people learning or

studying or working with them. They use a specific method of learning based on the events and

situation around. On the other hand; the second type of learners is those that will gather all inputs

and outputs in their model of learning. Occasionally, individual styles differ in learning particular

concepts depending on choices of approach. The learning style an individual adopts is their choice.

Ultimately, nurses are advised to incorporate their teaching methods with the learning styles of

patients.

Out of four strategies of VARK, there are just two that I specifically use to study, read/write and

Kinesthetic. Learning with kinesthetic makes one make use of the olfactory sense ( is a sense of

smell), taste, visual and tactile sense. The application of knowledge to theories alone is preferred

by the kinesthetic learner. The Kinesthetic learner also uses examples that will show real-life

experience in learning. Kinesthetic learning also involves examples and case study to help learners

understand and this is also helpful to them during an examination. These learners dexterous in

using examples to answer questions and another method I adopt is the read and write method,

which involves reading and writing only. People who use this method always love to gather

information into pages which they will end up reading, and they also love to write. The more the

individual read, the more they comprehend in learning.

The VARK strategies are designed to help teachers on the best means to use to teach people and

in a multivarious way. These strategies help teachers and trainees to be able to based on their

knowledge, teach better based on the method that is suitable for students. This model, if well

studied, teachers will know the difficulties students or learners face when learning or studying

(The Journey of Excellence, n.d). The influence of learning styles of individual learners is strong,

and the model they choose will direct them on what they wish to learn and how they wish to relate

to others based on their knowledge. Thus, it is of great importance for trainers or educators to know

learner's style and to make judicious use of this to their advantage.
