The acronym VARK stands for Visual, Aural, Read/write, and Kinesthetic sensory modalities that are used for learning. The interactive learning styles inventory (VARK) provides immediate scoring (if you have Java script)based on a 14-item questionnaire. Explanations of VARK scores are available that focus of effective study skills for learners with different learning preferences. Site also contains additional materials for the teacher educator including summaries of related research.
