Answer to Question 1

C
Kinesthetic learners prefer to learn by touch, movement, imitation, and practice; they best understand information by touching or feeling the material and by processing the information in their own way. For example, a kinesthetic learner who listens to a classroom lecture may take notes and later rewrite them after processing the material. It is important for students to recognize that no one style is better than another and that each style is used to some extent, depending on the learning situation.

Answer to Question 2

D
We must understand a person's location in the intersections of socially constructed categories of privilege and oppression (e.g., race, class, gender, age, sexual orientation). This is necessary in order to, fully understand a person's actions, choices and outcomes. Culture has historically been associated with norms, values, and traditions passed down through generations. Culture has also been perceived as synonymous with ethnicity, race, nationality, and language. These outdated ideas about culture lead to statements such as, Mexicans believe this or Chinese patients are like this. In reality, culture is much more dynamic and includes race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, class, immigration status, and other axes of identification. All of us are members of multiple social groups at the same time. These intersecting identities impact our experience of the world around us.
