Jon and Mandy are having a difficult time studying for their psychology test, so they formed a study group with two other classmates. From inventories they had taken in a previous class, Jon discovered that his dominant processing style is analytic. He prefers auditory input and his multiple-intelligence strengths are logical, linguistic, and intrapersonal. Mandy, on the other hand, processes globally, prefers visual and kinesthetic input, and her strengths are interpersonal, musical, and kinesthetic. They had memorized what their learning styles were for the final exam, but really didn't understand what those meant. The preferences and strengths of the two other students (Marc and Amanda) were not known. The upcoming test is about how the brain learns.
