Learning Styles: Making A Difference For Those Who Learn Differently

http://www.ga.unc.edu/NCTA/NCTA/TAlsty.htm

Extractions: Most educators agree that students have their own unique ways of interacting with the learning process. Different children learn best in different ways and there is no single approach to instruction that fits all children. As the student population in our public school classrooms increasingly becomes more diverse, and as many students, particularly culturally different students, struggle to keep up, educational reforms involving a learning styles approach to instruction are essential to individual student success. Participants in this module will focus on: Offered as a LEA/NCTA Partnership Academy only "If students cannot learn the way we teach them,then we must teach them the way they learn."
Learning Styles?
However, learning styles is not the Holy Grail of education that it is often theverbal explanations, whether oral or written are not going to teach you what
http://www.garlikov.com/teaching/Lstyles.htm

Extractions: One of the recent education fads is the "learning styles" approach that argues that information needs to be presented to students in different styles speech, musical presentation, visual art, writing, tactile ("hands-on"), in a dramatic presentation such as a play, or whatever other sort of presentation might appeal more to the way different students supposedly learn best. Furthermore, students need to be tested using, different styles so that those who have difficulty taking multiple choice tests or writing essays can still demonstrate what they have learned in a way that they are better able to communicate it. The idea is that some people learn better when they hear speech, others hear better through music, others learn better from some sort of visual communication (whether graphs, pictures, video, classroom demonstrations, computer or tv graphics or video, etc.), others from acting out a performance or doing an experiment or playing with representative objects "manipulatives" or by writing, etc.). Similarly, many students are thought to demonstrate their knowledge better if they can do it in some way other than writing down test answers. I had one college teacher who, when asked a question about something he had just said or that was assigned in the previous night's reading, would say it over again louder and louder and write it on the board in the same words, using different colors of chalk for each repetition, as if the reason we could not understand him was that we were either deaf or color blind. It never occurred to him to try to explain something in different words or in a conceptually different way. For him, using different colors and different vocal volumes was to explain it in a "different way". The same problem occurs when one uses a different "style" but essentially conveys the same information, when it is the information conveyed that is problematic, not the manner in which it was conveyed.

http://www2.ncsu.edu/unity/lockers/users/f/felder/public/Papers/LS-Prism.htm

Extractions: Students have different learning styles characteristic strengths and preferences in the ways they take in and process information. Some students tend to focus on facts, data, and algorithms; others are more comfortable with theories and mathematical models. Some respond strongly to visual forms of information, like pictures, diagrams, and schematics; others get more from verbal formswritten and spoken explanations. Some prefer to learn actively and interactively; others function more introspectively and individually. Functioning effectively in any professional capacity, however, requires working well in all learning style modes. For example, competent engineers and scientists must be observant, methodical, and careful (characteristics of the sensing style in one of the learning style models to be described) as well as innovative, curious, and inclined to go beyond facts to interpretation and theory (characteristics of the intuitive style in that model). Similarly, they must develop both

http://www2.ncsu.edu/unity/lockers/users/f/felder/public/Learning_Styles.html

Extractions: Students preferentially take in and process information in different ways: by seeing and hearing, reflecting and acting, reasoning logically and intuitively, analyzing and visualizing, steadily and in fits and starts. Teaching methods also vary. Some instructors lecture, others demonstrate or lead students to self-discovery; some focus on principles and others on applications; some emphasize memory and others understanding. When mismatches exist between learning styles of most students in a class and the teaching style of the professor, the students may become bored and inattentive in class, do poorly on tests, get discouraged about the courses, the curriculum, and themselves, and in some cases change to other curricula or drop out of school. Professors, confronted by low test grades, unresponsive or hostile classes, poor attendance and dropouts, know something is not working. They may become overly critical of their students (making things even worse) or begin to wonder if they are in the right profession. Most seriously, society loses potentially excellent professionals. Richard Felder is developing a model of learning styles and a parallel model of teaching styles that seems to apply well to students in technical disciplines. (The model was originally formulated in collaboration with Dr. Linda K. Silverman, an educational psychologist.) The idea is not to teach each student exclusively according to his or her preferences, but rather to strive for a balance of instructional methods. If the balance is achieved, students will be taught partly in a manner they prefer, which leads to an increased comfort level and willingness to learn, and partly in a less preferred manner, which provides practice and feedback in ways of thinking and solving problems which they may not initially be comfortable with but which they will have to use to be fully effective professionals.
Trent University - People Learn In Different Ways
I learned alternative ways to teach, which was initially difficultsince learning styles and teaching styles may be quite specific.
http://www.trentu.ca/news/view/learn.html

Extractions: People learn in different ways HOW DO YOU LEARN? ANSWER IN SIMPLE TEST by Magda Havas A few years ago, Professor Deborah Berrill and I stopped for dinner on our way home from Queen's University. After we placed our order she produced a list of 12 questions and asked me to answer them. She said it was a ``Learning Style Inventory'' that would tell me how I process information. The way people think fascinates me, so I did as I was told. After a few simple calculations and a couple of graphs, between the main course and coffee, I learned that I was a ``thinker/doer''. She then went on to describe, in detail, ways I liked to learn and teaching methods that frustrated me. She was right! Amazing that such a simple test could be so accurate. Since then I have tested my students and a few interested colleagues with equally amazing results. I learned alternative ways to teach, which was initially difficult since learning styles and teaching styles may be quite specific. The Learning Style Inventory (LSI) also explained the frustration I sometimes see on my students' faces, especially in courses with both arts and science majors. I knew that science students process information differently than do arts students, although I could not put my finger on the specific differences until the LSI came along. I'm convinced that these learning styles play a key role in the courses students select as well as the ones they excel at and the teaching styles they find most rewarding.

http://www.westarkchurchofchrist.org/edwards/b011209.htm

Extractions: Bible class teachers have the potential to make an eternal impact on the lives of those in their class. Because we know this is true, it is extremely important that our Bible classes at West-Ark be the best they can possibly be. Since 1979 our 2nd - 6th grade Bible classes have had regular, traditional classrooms and lessons. We've also utilized learning center stations to reinforce those lessons. At that time, our teaching techniques were similar to what children were used to in the schoolroom. However, since that time our world has changed tremendously, and we have learned more about how children learn best. A learning style is the way that a person sees things and then processes what has been seen. Someone has said that each person's learning style is as unique as a signature. When a person is going to learn something, they can learn faster and enjoy learning more if his/her learning style is affirmed by the way the teacher teaches. Since we know that different people learn differently, it makes practical sense to utilize different teaching styles so that we can relate to the entire class. Since October of this year, the learning center classes for our 2nd - 6th graders have been transformed into workshops that are designed to utilize a particular teacher's talents to teach children the Bible lessons. This workshop rotation model transitions the teaching method from the traditional lecture method to exciting, interesting, "hands on" lessons that stimulate learning. Not only have our styles of teaching changed, but also our teaching environments. Our rooms now reflect the type of multisensory teaching that we are trying to accomplish in order to reach each one that we teach.

Voice of Experience School Issues Article V O I C E O F E X P E R I E N C E Each week, an educator takes a stand or shares an Aha! moment in the classroom in the Education World Voice of Experience column. This week, educator Kathleen Modenbach reflects on how art projects can be a great bridge between some students and difficult content. She recalls how an art project constructed around Romeo and Juliet spurred one special education student to ask "Did Shakespeare write anything else?" Wow! Included: Modenbach shares sample art project ideas plus a message board where you can share your pet art projects! Although I appreciate art, I'm no good at it. In fact, I can draw only stick people. I confess this to my high school students whenever I assign an art project, which I do from time to time to motivate their understanding of literature. I've been assigning art projects for years. I realized long ago long before it was fashionable or mandated the benefits of teaching to student learning styles and strengths. Back then, as a novice special education teacher, I discovered that a large percentage of my learning disabled students were good artists and that their artistic talents weren't being nurtured or capitalized upon. It was then that I started using art projects to reinforce everything from Shakespearean drama to modern literature. I'll never forget Richard. Richard was in my special education English I class.

Extractions: Inquiry-Based Learning teaches students how to learn. It increases student comprehension of course content, and it is easily adaptable to different learning styles. It does require a greater time commitment than traditional teaching methods. Program one , Introduction to student Centered Instruction, explains the strengths and weaknesses of Inquiry Based Learning, a student centered instructional method that incorporates cross-discipline study, critical thinking skills, and structured research with students' learning styles to produce a student generated model of a given concept, process or knowledge base. Program two , Achieving Learning Outcomes, guides educators through delivery methods that increase student interest in course material and promote students' self-esteem. Educators and students explain which methods work best in the classroom and how those methods improve content retention, increase workplace skills and encourage life-long learning. Program three , Tools for Successful Learning, illustrates how instructors incorporate media into lesson plans, how they teach students to use media and how they build media resources for optimum student use. After participating in this program, the viewer will understand how different media (i.e., online libraries, e-mail, audiovisual resources) can be used to enhance Inquiry Based Learning.
