strategies.Compare your preferred learning strategies to the identified strategies for your
preferred learning style.Discuss how the awareness of individual learning styles,
preferences and strategies influence teaching (those who are in a position to teach) and
learning (those who are in a position to learn).Cite a minimum of three references in the
paper.Although the topic of this assignment refers to your individual learning style, avoid
the use of first person voice (words such as, “I, we, our”) in your essay.Prepare this
assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student
Success Center. An abstract is not required.This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the
rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for
successful completion.You are required to submit this assignment to Turnitin. Please refer
to the directions in the Student Success Center.Example Approach to VARK
AnalysisIdentifying individuals learning styles of all learners is necessary to good
performance in the health promotion sector. In most cases, educators assume this great
responsibility to determine how to handle best and teach learners, which has a long time
stagnated their (learners) educational performance and health promotion outcomes (Liew
et al., 2015). The purpose of this paper is to conduct a VARK analysis and discuss the overall
value of learning styles. Personal Learning Styles According to VARK QuestionnaireVARK
questionnaire has been one of the best ways of analyzing students’ preferred learning
strategies to improve their educational performance and service delivery in various sectors
they get an opportunity to work in after school. According to the VARK questionnaire, my

learning styles are Aural, Read/Write, and Kinesthetic. Aural learning style entails listening
to the teacher and engaging in discussions with people who have some knowledge or
interest in learning the same thing. Aural learning strategy requires attentiveness to the
sound of the one offering the lesson. Under the read/write learning strategy, notes, texts,
handouts are an excellent and reliable source of knowledge (Bhagat, Vyas, & Singh 2015).I
prefer having the notes because I can refer to them in the future if I am unable to reach out
to the teacher. When notes are preserved well, they can also be helpful for consultation in
discussion sessions. Finally, after answering the VARK questionnaire questions, the
kinesthetic style appeared to be one of my best learning styles. Engaging in practical
exercises creates a lasting impression in my brain. Learning through examples makes it easy
to understand something because you can learn the whole procedure of doing something
that is supposed to be done step by step (Bhagat, Vyas, & Singh 2015). It is tough to forget
what you have ever seen, unlike what you just read being explained in books without
practically doing it.Preferred Learning StrategiesMy preferred learning strategies are
Kinesthetic, aural, and read/write strategies. I mostly prefer the Kinesthetic approach
because I find it easy to learn through practical examples and case studies. Practical
examples boost my confidence in doing things and handling similar tasks if assigned by the
teacher. My second best learning strategy is aural, which involves listening and engaging in
focused group discussions. Through this, I learn what is required of me by the teacher and
improve my communication skills, which are essential in handling day-to-day life issues.
Finally, reading and writing notes as the teacher is teaching ensures I concentrate
throughout the whole class, which is very necessary for good performance in my academics.
Grand Canyon NRS 429V Week 1 AssignmentEffect on Educational Performance and
importance of identifying Learning Styles for Learners as an EducatorLearning styles are
essential to the educational performance of the learners. For example, some learners prefer
doing things practically because they can remember what they learn. Additionally, other
learners don’t love writing or reading notes. They would like practical examples or listen or
watch a video with visual and graphical presentations of what they should learn (Liew et al.,
2015). Through this, learning is made interesting, enhancing their educational performance
because they do what they love most.The first step of becoming a successful educator is
identifying the individual learning styles of your learners. Once the learning styles are
identified, the tutoring work becomes more comfortable, and the educator can subgroup the
learners where each group will consist of learners with similar preferred styles. For
example, when he wants to handle a particular topic, he will prepare notes and handouts,
audio and video presentations, and equipment that can be used to study the matter in
question practically. The educator will assign the group that loves read/write style a task
where they are supposed to explore the topic, discuss the key issues and write a summary
of what they learn. The second group will be given a video to listen to and finally answer
questions or summarize what they learn. The last group can be given the required
equipment to practically try doing what the educator needs from them and finally compile
and submit their findings. Through doing this, the learners will be able to get the concepts
better and easily because they will all be feeling part and parcel of the class sine they
participated in answering questions or writing summary and findings of the topic in

question hence giving the educator a smooth teaching session (Liew et al., 2015).Learning
Styles and Health PromotionHealth promotion outcomes will only be successful if the
different individuals’ learning styles are applied accordingly. Therefore, it is necessary to
understand the different learning styles that each individual possesses. This will enable the
educator to know the best approach to use when teaching various topics. Once the right
method is used, the learners will be able to get the concepts rightly and correctly deliver
their health services in the future.Forcing a wrong learning style on an individual may lead
to a change of behavior and attitude towards the teacher and the subject, which will finally
negatively affect the general performance. Therefore, identifying and utilizing various
individual learning styles is essential for learners’ performance and health promotion
outcomes (Mozaffari et al., 2020). Health promotion is a vast field hence making it easy for
the application of different learning styles. For example, health promotion topics require
reading and writing notes, watching and listening to the video and audio clips that show and
explaining how various disorders should be treated, and performing practical experiences
and observations.ConclusionLearning styles of all learners is necessary for good
performance in the health promotion sector. Therefore, educators need to identify the
learning styles that can be made uncomplicated by issuing the learners with the VARK
analysis questionnaire. This enables the educators to determine how their learners would
love to be taught and handled.References – Grand Canyon NRS 429V Week 1

strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so
indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly.
Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read
over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as
necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious
errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.Use a standard 10
to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers
with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over
the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.Likewise,
large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space
between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at
“padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not
fool your professor.The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch

margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to
use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be
hard to follow your argument.ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CLASSDiscussion
Questions (DQ)Initial responses to the DQ should address all components of the questions
asked, include a minimum of one scholarly source, and be at least 250 words.Successful
responses are substantive (i.e., add something new to the discussion, engage others in the
discussion, well-developed idea) and include at least one scholarly source.One or two
sentence responses, simple statements of agreement or “good post,” and responses that are
off-topic will not count as substantive. Substantive responses should be at least 150 words.I
encourage you to incorporate the readings from the week (as applicable) into your
responses.Weekly ParticipationYour initial responses to the mandatory DQ do not count
toward participation and are graded separately.In addition to the DQ responses, you must
post at least one reply to peers (or me) on three separate days, for a total of three
replies.Participation posts do not require a scholarly source/citation (unless you cite
someone else’s work).Part of your weekly participation includes viewing the weekly
announcement and attesting to watching it in the comments. These announcements are
made to ensure you understand everything that is due during the week.APA Format and
Writing QualityFamiliarize yourself with APA format and practice using it correctly. It is
used for most writing assignments for your degree. Visit the Writing Center in the Student
Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for APA paper templates, citation
examples, tips, etc. Points will be deducted for poor use of APA format or absence of APA
format (if required).Cite all sources of information! When in doubt, cite the source.
Paraphrasing also requires a citation.I highly recommend using the APA Publication Manual,
6th edition.Use of Direct QuotesI discourage overutilization of direct quotes in DQs and
assignments at the Masters’ level and deduct points accordingly.As Masters’ level students,
it is important that you be able to critically analyze and interpret information from journal
articles and other resources. Simply restating someone else’s words does not demonstrate
an understanding of the content or critical analysis of the content.It is best to paraphrase
content and cite your source.LopesWrite PolicyFor assignments that need to be submitted
to LopesWrite, please be sure you have received your report and Similarity Index (SI)
percentage BEFORE you do a “final submit” to me.Once you have received your report,
please review it. This report will show you grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors
that can easily be fixed. Take the extra few minutes to review instead of getting counted off
for these mistakes.Review your similarities. Did you forget to cite something? Did you not
paraphrase well enough? Is your paper made up of someone else’s thoughts more than your
own?Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in
LoudCloud for tips on improving your paper and SI score.Late PolicyThe university’s policy
on late assignments is 10% penalty PER DAY LATE. This also applies to late DQ
replies.Please communicate with me if you anticipate having to submit an assignment late. I
am happy to be flexible, with advance notice. We may be able to work out an extension
based on extenuating circumstances.If you do not communicate with me before submitting
an assignment late, the GCU late policy will be in effect.I do not accept assignments that are
two or more weeks late unless we have worked out an extension.As per policy, no

assignments are accepted after the last day of class. Any assignment submitted after
midnight on the last day of class will not be accepted for
grading.CommunicationCommunication is so very important. There are multiple ways to
communicate with me:Questions to Instructor Forum: This is a great place to ask course
content or assignment questions. If you have a question, there is a good chance one of your
peers does as well. This is a public forum for the class.Individual Forum: This is a private
forum to ask me questions or send me messages. This will be checked at least once every 24
hours. Grand Canyon NRS 429V Week 1 AssignmentNRS 429V Week 2 Assignment Health
