Students participate in LEGO activity in KINS 205Students in KINS 205: Introduction to Kinesiology are taking a creative, hands-on approach to understanding communication and learning styles. As part of their coursework, students participate in a unique LEGO activity that emphasizes the importance of clear instruction and effective communication.

In this exercise, one student receives a visual guide of a LEGO figure, while their partner builds the figure based solely on the step-by-step verbal instructions given. The partner building the LEGO model has no visual reference, relying entirely on what they hear from their teammate.

This activity not only provides students with a practical way to explore different communication strategies but also highlights how learning styles—visual, auditory, and kinesthetic—play a crucial role in education and professional settings. By participating in the exercise, students gain valuable insights into how to adapt their communication to suit diverse needs, an essential skill in the field of kinesiology and beyond.
