Everyone has the same way of learning new skills

• True

• False

You are a very hands-on learner, learning best by observing and doing. As your supervisor is getting ready to leave, he quickly gives you instructions on how to use a new saw and asks you to cut some pieces of wood for the next day. You want him to show you how to use it but he seems like he is in a hurry to leave. What do you do?

• Hope you will remember what he said to do to run the saw.

• Thank him for the information and tell him you have understood.

• Ask him if he has the time to show you before leaving or if there is someone else who can show you how to run the saw so you are sure you have understood.

• Ask a co-worker to do the work for you while you continue with another task.

The best way to learn something new is to:

• Read about it and memorize the information

• Follow the instructions of the instructor

• Talk about it and work together with others

• all of the above

• Watch someone else doing it

If you do not like learning in a certain way (for example, through reading or writing), you should avoid it as much as you can.

• True

• False
