Motivating Introverted Students to Excel in the Classroom | Concordia University - Port... - 0 views

  • Mixing social activities with reflective time gives these learners the chance to decompress and process the information. With too much stimulation, they easily become overwhelmed and shut down.

      I worry that my pedagogy of multiple activities shut down my more introverted student.
  • Extroverted students verbally answer every question, participate in group discussions and thrive at oral reports. They often get in trouble because they talk before they think or when they should be listening. On the other hand, introverted students enjoy solo or small group projects. They often write clear essays and rarely volunteer to answer questions in class.

  • I experienced that learning is socially constructed in the online environment.
  • I also just talked  to Lisa about what I knew, what I had learned, and about my thoughts and feelings on our topics of … discussion!  I had created my first true discussion post. 
  • These experiences “highlight one of the fundamental differences between the F2F classroom and the online learning environment. ‘Discussion’, or the students’ contributions/posts/interactions in the online course, take on a significant importance in an online classroom. Rather than an extemporaneous activity by a select vocal few in the front row of a F2F classroom, effectively designed online interaction and learning activities are designed to engage all students in the course with the content, with the instructor, and with each other” (Pickett, 200

4 Tips for Reaching Training Introverts | Mindflash - 0 views

  • try wording the question a little more provocatively, like: “How does your solution to the scenario differ from the recommended solution provided in the training?”
  • If you’re primarily an extrovert you’re outgoing, gregarious, friendly, and talkative – but you tend to bore easily
  • If you’re primarily an introvert, you’re less outwardly expressive and more likely to process your emotions and thoughts internally. You tend to embrace critical-thinking and you do more listening than talking – but your introspective ways may leave you feeling awkward in social or group settings

  • working with introverts and extroverts is a little easier because you can observe the audience and adjust your delivery to suit their dynamics – using a little less talk here and a little more action there.
  • because introverts are more solitary, the self-guided nature of online training is actually a good fit for them
  • Introverts like to think first and talk later
  • communicating relevancy and incorporating design features that show respect for the introvert’s preference for independent learning.
  • keep the number of between lesson “pulse-check” questions to a minimum
  • Introverts disdain superficiality
  • keep scenarios realistic, succinct (get to the point!), and complex to up the engagement.
  • focus on relevancy. Introverts respond to substance
  • send your trainees a link to the quiz or survey a day or two after they take the module. This gives introverts more time to think about the lessons and how they apply on the job
  • Introverts prefer to write down their ideas

  • Use Twitter as an Announcement Board.
  • hey could just always have the Twitter in the background when they are at home and just look at it from time to time.
