I never really ever thought that I had a specific learning style because I tend to change that style depending on what class I am taking and also what I need to prepare for. But when it comes down to it, the "What's Your Style" quiz hit the nail on the head as to what kind of learner I am in general. I definitely need to have detailed meticulous notes that will come in handy when trying to prepare for exams and papers. I love sitting in the front and seeing what we are learning in class. But I'm also someone who dips into the auditory and kinesthetic standards for learning as well because I find it beneficial to take others input as well as actively learn things as opposed to just sitting and mindlessly taking notes. For certain subjects all 3 styles are necessary and for others only 1 or 2 styles work.
I think in regards to teaching and technology, technology plays a huge role in supporting these varying learning styles. You are able to access numerous resources that can be visual, auditory or kinesthetic. And I believe that students already use these resources because they have become so accessible in their daily lives.
