In educational psychology, understanding how individuals best acquire, process, and retain information is critical for developing effective instructional methods. The Learning Styles Inventory (LSI), developed by David Kolb and later adapted into models such as VAK (Visual, Auditory, Kinesthetic), has become a popular tool to identify learning preferences. Among the different learning styles assessed by the LSI, the kinesthetic learning style holds unique importance for those who learn best through physical activity and tactile experiences. Kinesthetic learners prefer to engage directly with their environment by using their bodies and hands to explore and understand new information (Dunn & Dunn, 1992). This article explores the characteristics of kinesthetic learners, how the Learning Styles Inventory measures this learning preference, and practical strategies for educators to incorporate kinesthetic learning into various educational settings.

The Learning Styles Inventory (LSI) has become a widely used tool for identifying individual preferences in learning, helping educators and learners to better understand how information is most effectively processed. Among the various learning styles identified through LSI, the auditory learning style stands out as a particularly significant one, especially in classroom settings where lectures, discussions, and verbal instruction are the primary modes of communication. Auditory learners rely heavily on sound to absorb, process, and retain information, often excelling when they can listen to explanations or engage in discussions (Fleming, 2001). This article explores the characteristics of auditory learners, how the Learning Styles Inventory measures this learning preference, and strategies educators can use to create more inclusive learning environments for auditory learners.
