What percentage of learning effectiveness is achieved by saying and doing?

  1. 40%

  2. 70%

  3. 90%

  4. 100%

The correct answer is: 90%

Saying and doing have been known to be the most effective methods of learning. This is because it combines both the auditory and kinesthetic modes of learning. By speaking out loud and also physically engaging in an activity, we are using both our words and actions to reinforce our understanding, which can lead to up to 90% effectiveness in learning. Although reading and watching are also effective, they typically only involve one of these modes and therefore may not be as effective for everyone. As for option D, achieving 100% effectiveness in learning is not always possible as different individuals may have different learning styles and preferences. This is why saying and doing, which cater to both auditory and kinesthetic learners, is considered the most effective method. Option A and B may seem plausible, but they are not as high as option C due to the combination of both speaking and physically engaging in an activity.
