How do I study/revise as a kinaesthetic learner?

I've been trying out a variety of learning styles, but visual learning, such as mind maps don't seem to work, however kinaesthetic learning does seem to work(I seem to learn best by doing) - the only revision method I know of are flashcards but I don't know how to use them!... does anyone know what other techniques I could use for kinaesthetic learning? Thanks
I don't know what subjects this would become relevant to but associate things you tend to forget with things you see everyday:

stare at your lamp while you recite some definition you need to learn in your head, then when you look at the lamp again, you will think about that definition.
I honestly don't know, sorry

Aww, sorry babes xxx
You could make a revision dance like Miley? :biggrin:
Sounds like the answers you get when do a quiz on the internet or buzzfeed. I think its BS and I would stick to old-school making notes and doing past papers. No need to dance or stare at light bulbs when your exams are in, I'm assuming, 3 months or so...

cheers.:smile: I have already a folder of nicely written out notes, meaning I just need to remember it, although I seem remember when re-reading my notes, my tutors voice seems to be reading them which may work as they made the lessons humourous, meaning I occaisionally tend to remember them.

If you learn to apply the facts you learn or content you make to scenarios or use them in answers and do like a chain of thought clearly where you bring in everything relevant, you will remember facts better.
