Audio Learners

I am really interested in studies about different types of learning styles, especially because I think we can all relate. Some of us can read something once and immediately understand, while others (like myself) learn better by "doing". The idea of podcasting and digital storytelling immediately benefit those students that we would consider to be "audio learners", those who learn best by listening.
Characteristics of audio learners that I found include:
Audio learners are very good at remembering what they hear
Audio learners may have difficulty remembering what they have read
Audio learners may have difficulty with reading/writing
Audio learners can find it hard to read facial and body language

These characteristics as well as suggested strategies for students to use and suggested strategies for teachers to use can be found at the following website:
