Learning Style Inventory
Kolb & Fry’s Learning Style Inventory theorizes that people develop preferences for different learning styles in the same way that they develop any other sort of style, i.e. – management, leadership, negotiating, etc.  The four predominant styles are:

• Active experimentation (simulations, case study, homework). If this is the preferred style of the learner then she is an Activist – what’s new? I’m game for anything.
• Reflective observation (logs, journals, brainstorming).  If this is the preferred style of the learner then he is a Reflector – I’d like time to think about this.
• Abstract conceptualization (lecture, papers, analogies).  If this is the preferred style of the learner then she is a Theorist – How does this relate to that?
• Concrete experience (laboratories, field work, observations). If this is the preferred style of the learner then he is a Pragmatist – How can I apply this in practice?
