I have completed a course in teaching English as a second language, and the
statistics quoted on this subject match yours.  The point made was to have a
mixture of visual, auditory and kinaesthetic presentation to accommodate 
everyone.

A little off topic, but can anyone point me to a website that has reputable 
stats on the % of information retained if it's presented in auditory format 
only (talking), visual only (eg overheads), auditory and visual, and 
kinesthetic (doing something)?

And also the breakdown in society of visual vs auditory vs kinesthetic people?

I've found one site that suggests visuals are 65% (but another suggesting 80% 
or 87%, written by a visual person :-)), auditory 30% and kinesthetic 5%.

Thanks,

Lee
