i don’t know how i got to the topic i’m at right now (you’ll get that joke in a moment) but it got me thinking. I’ve read that children with ADD have a signficantly higher “preference” for learning things visual-spatially as opposed to auditory-sequentially. now there’s people arguing all sides but if I may for a moment just speak from my own experience throw something into the loop and see what everyone else thinks.
a big part of ADD is distractibility (at least for me). now, part of learning and using logical sequential thinking skills requires sustained attention…dum dum dum. this is my add jumping tracks in no particular order 
Normally, a good portion of sensory information is filtered before it reaches consciousness, however for people with a higher component of distractibility, that filter is next to non-existant. i’m speaking also from my own experience. could it be that visual spatial learning is “preffered” by ADDers because it lacks the type of sustained attention required by logical sequential and kinda results more often in kids with it because it is the smarter choice for learning.
think of it like this…rock in the shoe, feeling of the air passing through the hair on the scalp, looks on that guys face, what’s he thinking, man the sun is really bright, the sun looks the same size as the moon in the sky etc…and on and on this goes. MOST of that is entirely IRRELEVANT to most daily activities, especially productive ones. so the only way to thrive and survive is to use this type of learning where intuition (as described as unconscious pattern recognition), not knowing how you arrive at an answer or “something” but usually having the right answer.
organization of thoughts and ideas was never my strong point either. sorry for the long post. let me know what you think.
