Seminar III An Introduction toLearning Styles Joe Hanus
Learning Styles • The Big Idea: • People learn in different ways. • So what? • Characterize these differences in terms of the dimensions of the learning process. • Use this theoretical framework to guide the planning and delivery of instruction.
Learning Style Dimensions(Felder’s Model) • Perception • Input • Organization • Processing • Understanding sensory- intuitive visual- verbal inductive- deductive active- reflective sequential- global
Learning Style DimensionsPerception sensory- intuitive Sights, sounds, physical sensations (Practical and methodical) Ideas, insights, memories (Abstract and imaginative)
Learning Style Dimensions Input visual- verbal Pictures, diagrams, graphs, demonstrations Sounds, written and spoken words, formulas
Learning Style Dimensions Organization inductive- deductive Facts and observations first, then infer principles (Natural human learning style) Principles given first, then deduce applications (Natural human teaching style)
Learning Style DimensionsProcessing active- reflective Learn by thinking things through Learn by interacting with others
Learning Style DimensionsUnderstanding sequential- global Learn in a logical progression of small incremental steps (Solve problems without complete understanding) Learn in large disconnected jumps (Solve problems—all or nothing)
Don’t Misinterpret the Skit • There are 32 learning styles, not two. • A learning style preference can be strong or weak. • A learning style preference can change: • With time... • And possibly even with subject matter.

Consequences ofTeaching-Learning Mismatches • Students taught only in their less-preferred mode can’t learn effectively. • Students taught only in their preferred mode won’t develop balanced learning skills.
Most Engineering Instruction Favors: sensory - intuitive visual - verbal inductive- deductive active - reflective sequential -global
So What? • Give all students opportunities to learn in their preferred modes some of the time. • Vary: • Organization • Teaching techniques • Learning activities
Conclusions • You’ll find students of all learning styles in your classes. • We need all types in the engineering profession. • We need to address all styles in our classes, not just one! We’ll discuss specific applications soon...
