  2. LEARNING STYLES WHY BOTHER?

  3. Begin to learn something NEW or DIFFICULT in your Strength.

  4. Reinforce it in as many ways possible.

  5. SOME APPROACHES TO LEARNING STYLES • MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCE • SENSORY MODES • HEMISPHERIC DOMINANCE

  6. SENSORY MODES • AUDITORY

  7. SENSORY MODES • VISUAL

  8. SENSORY MODES KINESTHETIC

  9. Mixed Modality • Most of us use a combination of these three.

  10. AUDITORY • Use their voices and their ears as the primary mode of learning. You remember what you hear and what you say yourself. You want to talk about something difficult. You love class discussion. • listen carefully in class • tape record-both classes and notes for review and practice tests • discuss material with another student or instructor

  11. Visual • Review and study material by reading and organizing--maybe even recopying. • Using mapping techniques • and mental videos • Want to actually see the words written down, a picture of something being described, a time line to remember events in history, or the assignment written on the board. Probably you organize your materials. You appreciate being able to follow with an overhead transparency or handout.

  12. Kinesthetic • Make copious notes • Use computer • Use Cornell System • Make flashcards • Mapping • Make summary sheets • Take sample tests • Pace/Dance/Cheer • Make models • Prefer and actually learn better when they touch and are physically involved in what they are studying. Act out a situation, do a project and in general be busy with your learning. You may take lots of notes and never re-read them!

  13. Begin to learn something NEW or DIFFICULT in your Strength.

  14. Reinforce it inasmanywayspossible.

  15. Hemispheric Dominance

  16. Most ACADEMIC information is geared to the left side of the brain LEFT RIGHT • Symbols • Singing and Music • Creativity • Reading • Phonics • Perception • Handwriting • Spatial Relationships • Locating Details/Facts • Shapes and Patterns • Talking/Reciting • Visualization • Color Sensitivity • Listening • Feeling and Emotion • Following Directions

  17. One Brain-Two Sides • When Something is New, Difficult or Unfamiliar,we automatically go to dominant side • No one Is Totally Left or Totally Right Brained • You Canand Must Develop Both Sides of the Brain • Most People Have a Dominant Side • But, Process Information in Very DifferentWays • Right and Left Work Together for Many Things

  18. Left BrainRight Brain • LINEAR • SYMBOLIC • SEQUENTIAL • LOGICAL • VERBAL • REALITY BASED • TEMPORAL • HOLISTIC • CONCRETE • RANDOM • INTUITIVE • NONVERBAL • FANTASY ORIENTED • NON-TEMPORAL
