Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Tactual learners think in terms of touch. They learn best by doing, experiencing, and experimenting. The individual who learns best by observing would be classified as a visual learner/observer. The individual who learns best by listening would be classified as an auditory learner/listener. The individual who learns equally well by observing and listening has a blended learning style.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Auditory learners learn best by hearing; therefore, a replayable audiotape would maximize learning. Allowing the handling of equipment describes a technique useful to a tactual learner. Playing a videotape describes a technique useful to a visual learner. Drawing diagrams of important concepts describes a technique useful to a visual learner.
