  2. Different Styles Being different doesn’t mean being WRONG! TheTeacherTrack

  3. Different Expressions of Self

  4. Effective Leaders Do Not: • Expect those they lead to be like them • Assign moral values to learning style behaviors • Play the BLAME game

  5. Effective Leaders DO: • Embrace differences • Plan for varied learning styles • Analyze why some lessons do not work with some students and do things differently next time • Put the LEARNER (not the material or the teacher) in the center

  6. PAINTING THE FENCE You have a picket fence that must be painted. One hour later: 1.) You are still on the first slat, but it is perfect. 2.) You have convinced the neighbor to paint it, and you are chatting and entertaining him while he does it. 3.) You are in a hammock, but plan to get to it soon. 4.) You have counted the number of slats, planned out how long it takes to paint one, and are on schedule with your plan.

  7. TAKING A COLLEGE CLASS You are back in school! The best thing about it is: 1.) The opportunity to make new friends. 2.) Learning new facts and studying about what the experts have to say. 3.) Doing hands-on projects. 4.) Thinking about how you can put a new twist on things and change your world.

  8. PUTTING TOGETHER A BICYCLE Your son’s new bike comes in a box as separate parts. You: 1.) Delve right in, grab a part and start putting it together as you figure out the process. 2.) Observe as someone else puts it together, adding your own creative touch at the end. 3.) Read the directions, carefully think things through, lay the parts out on the carpet, and follow a clear plan. 4.) This would not happen to you. You would have brainstormed the most practical way of getting a bike for your son, compared prices, and found a ready-made bike at the same price at a local store.

  9. Appreciating Others’ Style • What is it like to be you? • What is it like to be me?
