However, if you are an intuitor and you happen to be in a class that deals primarily with memorization and rote substitution in formulas, you may have trouble with boredom. Ask your instructor for interpretations or theories that link the facts, or try to find the connections yourself. Take time to read the entire question before you start answering and be sure to check your results. Everyone learns more when information is presented both visually and verbally. Unfortunately, most people are visual learners, which means that most students do not get nearly as much as they would if more visual presentation were used in class.
Good learners are capable of processing information presented either visually or verbally.
If you are a visual learner, try to find diagrams, sketches, schematics, photographs, flow charts, or any other visual representation of course material that is predominantly verbal. Ask your instructor, consult reference books, and see if any videotapes or CD-ROM displays of the course material are available. Prepare a concept map by listing key points, enclosing them in boxes or circles, and drawing lines with arrows between concepts to show connections. Color-code your notes with a highlighter so that everything relating to one topic is the same color. Write summaries or outlines of course material in your own words.
