Send an E-Card IDENTIFYING LEARNING STYLES of 5 Parents who want to know what method of learning their child favors might ask the teacher's opinion. Many teachers give self-assessment tests at the beginning of the year and talk to students about the different learning styles to determine which method works best for them. Teachers and parents can help students adjust their study techniques by giving them tips for studying to their style. If children understand their own learning styles early on, then, when they reach higher grades where variety is less emphasized, they can supplement what they are missing at school with their own techniques for learning. Simply observing how your child responds at home also will shed light on his learning style. For example, does he respond to your verbal directions (auditory) or does he need the information to be written down on a chart or colorful list (visual)?

84. Topics For Teachers: Learning Styles We know that students have a range of different learning styles. As an instructor,you may observe that you, too, prefer to teach in certain modes. http://cstl.syr.edu/cstl/T-L/lrn_sty.htm

Topics for Teachers: Learning Styles CONTENTS Sensory-Based Learning Style Strengths of Each Syle To Learn and To Study ... Help is Available We know that students have a range of different learning styles. Some prefer to learn from concrete experiences and hands-on activities, while others prefer lectures or debates. As an instructor, you may observe that you, too, prefer to teach in certain modes. So what are the best ways for an effective teacher to accommodate these differences? You should vary your teaching strategies, the types of assignments that you give, and the kinds of learning activities that you plan. For example, you can give both oral and written assignments, small group as well as individual tasks. And you can present material in a variety of ways: lectures, discussion, experiential, videos, readings. By utilizing an assortment of methods, you accommodate different styles and provide a more stimulating environment for students. Remember, however, that even though students may prefer one particular learning style, they should be strengthening their skills in other areas as well. Fleming and Mills (1992) describe four kinds of learning styles (see table below).

85. Understanding Learning Styles Parents usually teach in their preferred learning style, which may be differentfrom seem to have a moderate preference for all three styles of learning. http://www.cfc-efc.ca/docs/cccf/rs045_en.htm

RESOURCE SHEET # Canadian Child Care Federation Understanding Learning Styles People learn in different ways. Some learn best by seeing, others by hearing, and still others by touching. Knowing our preferred learning style helps us learn and remember new things. There are three basic learning styles: . Auditory (hearing the information) . Visual (seeing the information) . Kinesthetic-Tactile (touching, participation) When parents know their child's best way to learn, they can help their child learn more effectively. It is just as important for you to know your own learning style. Parents usually teach in their preferred learning style, which may be different from the child's. This can be frustrating for both parent and child. For example, imagine that you are a strong auditory learner and try to verbally explain the rules of baseball to your child who is more visual and really has to see the various moves in a diagram! Even though we have a preferred learning style, we can still learn in other ways. People have varying degrees of preference - some are highly auditory, some are highly visual, some are highly kinesthetic-tactile (k-t), while others seem to have a moderate preference for all three styles of learning. At any age, your child will learn more easily using his preferred learning style, but this doesn't mean he can't and won't learn any other way. In fact, he should be encouraged to use and improve

They see that each of us develops a preferred and consistent set of behaviors or approaches to learning. In order to better understand the learning process, they break it down into several processes: cognitionhow one acquires knowledge conceptualizationhow one processes information. There are those who are always looking for connections among unrelated events. Meanwhile for others, each event triggers a multitude of new ideas. affectivepeople's motivation, decision making styles, values and emotional preferences will also help to define their learning styles. A number of people have tried to "catalogue" the ranges of learning styles in more detail than this. Kolb is perhaps one of the best known and his thinking is outlined below. Back to Learning Styles Preferences Outline Kolb's Theory of Learning Styles First Kolb showed that learning styles could be seen on a continuum running from: concrete experience: being involved in a new experience reflective observation: watching others or developing observations about own experience abstract conceptualization: creating theories to explain observations

About this Journal Call for Papers Submission Guidelines ... ITL Homepage Lynne Celli Sarasin, Learning Style Perspectives: Impact in the Classroom Atwood Publishing ( www.atwoodpublishing.com 112 pages ISBN: 1-891859-22-6 Reviewed by Caron Mellblom California State University, Dominguez Hills The challenge of addressing the needs of students in our classrooms is a frequent topic of discussion among university faculty. As experts in our respective disciplines, we may teach in ways that we were taught when we were students. However, relatively few university faculty have had the benefit of specific study in the area of teaching and learning in order to explore other options. Sarasin's Learning Style Perspectives: Impact in the Classroom provides a quick overview of the theories of learning styles and specific strategies regarding how to reach and teach students with a variety of learning styles. Learning Style Perspectives The third chapter introduces issues related to the adult learner, active learning strategies, learning to learn, and metacognitive strategies. The information presented in this section is particularly relevant for university faculty members as we must acknowledge that adult learners bring unique needs to the classroom. Often they are inexperienced in the art of being a successful student and in identifying how they learn and what they need to do in order to be efficient learners. The discussion of active learning strategies is useful and provides examples that can be readily applied in various disciplines. The remaining chapters focus on specific discussions of the identified learning styles: auditory, visual, and tactile/kinesthetic. In each chapter learner characteristics are presented, followed by a discussion of classroom activities, assignments that will engage the various learning styles, and appropriate assessment techniques.

Use the Socratic Method of teaching and self-discovery so learners discover and solve patterns and problems on their own. Use games and action to create an exciting learning experience and to increase retention of material. Inspire reading through literature that has gripping action, powerful emotions, and beautiful, colorful language.

Be Aware Of and Use Individual Learning Styles Individual learning styles, or strengths, give clues to teachers on how to best reach all learners. Visual cues are not enough; teachers must also employ auditory, kinesthetic, linguistic, musical, mathematical, spatial, interpersonal and intrapersonal cues. Reading Revolution uses all of these learning pathways throughout its system. Linguistic able to use the visual and auditory pathways to create language.
