Active vs. Reflective learnersResult reflective “7” I need time to think through some stuff • If placed in a group of dominant active learners I would tend to sit back and let the active learners dominate • Sometimes rewrite notes • Consciously give students time to answer “R” • Change up group pairings “R” and “A” • Give marks on notes “R” • Make active learners the group leaders “A”
Sensing vs. intuitiveResult Sensing 7 • I need to see how the information connects to the real world as a technician or teacher • I am ok with one way to problem solve if it works • I am ok to memorize facts that I need to know • I put things in prospective for my students “S” • I typically teach one way for certain things like gear ratio calculation to keep it simple “S” • Must memorize some facts “S” • Teach performance “I”
Visual vs verbal learnersVisual 11, verbal 1 • I MUST see the big picture. EG transmission type • Need a wiring diagram not just a flow chart • Teach big picture and explain it “VI &VE” • Teach students how to read a diagram and hydraulic flow chart “VI&VE”
Sequential vs Global learnersResults sequential 3 • I have difficulty following and remembering if the teaching is not sequential • Prefer if teacher makes difficult connection • I teach in a sequential manner but reference the big picture “S&G” • Encourage the students to skim the chapter “G”
