Learning styles - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 0 views

  • (VARK) models[18]: visual learners; auditory learners; reading/writing-preference learners; kinesthetic learners or tactile learners[1]. Fleming claimed that visual learners have a preference for seeing (think in pictures; visual aids such as overhead slides, diagrams, handouts, etc.). Auditory learners best learn through listening (lectures, discussions, tapes, etc.). Tactile/kinesthetic learners prefer to learn via experience—moving, touching, and doing (active exploration of the world; science projects; experiments, etc.). Its use in pedagogy allows teachers to prepare classes that address each of these areas. Students can also use the model to identify their learning style and maximize their educational experience by focusing on what benefits them the most.

      This is what I am currently wrestling with: how do I monitor student contributions to my course if they work in a cooperative group? I hated being that kid in the group that did all the work!

      Let's research this. I also wondered why that is
  • We have to able to understand why Facebook or Youtube engages them that much
    • Joan Erickson
       
      Truth be told, I only use youtube when I need things. I don't facebook because I don't want to put my life out there. I agree with you we need to understand why these social sharing websites engage the students so much?
