K, bored and uninsipred so here's a meme
OK, not really, but I need to gather some anonymous data. There was a time when I was studying to be a teacher and this survey would have made more sense, but that's behind me. I am just going to make an infographic out some other silly thing out of it.
I could fake the numbers, I suppose. It's not like I am going to try to get a teacher's certificate or a master's in Education with it. Bah.
Makes you wonder about the survey memes that float around LJ, doesn't it? Eh, most of them are just creative and prose writing exercises, I am sure.
This Questionnaire is designed to identify whether you are a visual (prefer to look), auditory (prefer to hear) or kinesthetic (prefer to touch/feel) learner. Respond to the questions with often, sometimes, or rarely, but since this is Livejournal and not some peice of paper full of checkboxes, feel free to elucidate, reminisce, and ruminate all you want. Just two bits of demgraphics first:

I'll answer these myself soon, since I sense part of the motivation to do these things is so that your readers get a glance at who you are behind the veil of your usual writing style and so that you get to know your readers as well, in a sort of quid pro quo sort of fashion. But I spent too long typing and formatting this and bed calls.
