Reflecting Back Lakiisha N. Bulerin Post University Reflecting Back My Visual Auditory Kinesthetic (VAK) learning style is visual learning. My multiple intelligences are, self, nature and language. The strengths of being a visual learner are, learning by seeing and being able to remember information in diverse environments. The disadvantage of being a visual learner is that it 's hard to retain information when there is nothing visible available. (Smith & Demand Media, n.d.) The strengths of multiple
different learning styles (visual, auditory, and tactile/kinesthetic), my personal prefered learning style (visual), learning style strategies, lifelong/essential skills, then finally combining the two topics, with a personally devised plan to ensure that I become a “lifelong learner”. This is relating to learning strategies 25, module 1, section IV, ESSAY ASSIGNMENT, page 34. The first learning style I will render an explanation for is visual. People who prefer visual learning, learn simply
their learning style was, they would likely ponder because most students would not know what their learning style is. This is the case for Jeremy, a college student who discovered that the learning styles were broken down into three categories: Auditory, Visual, and Tactile. According to Educationplannner.org (2011), an auditory learner retains knowledge more efficiently by listening, Visual is learning through reading and writing, and tactile is learning by physical touching. Through a learning styles
learn.” Regardless of what, where or when we choose to obtain knowledge, how we approach learning is unique to each and every one of us based on our individual learning style or styles. It is the idea of behavior that suggests learning styles are a way of being, and can change over time. The good learning style can help us learn better and learn faster. Usually, there are seven learning styles: first, Visual. People prefer using pictures, images, and spatial understanding. Second, Aural. People prefer
Visual thinking engages the use of visual aids to deliver educational content more effectively. Using even simple visuals is a great way to illustrate the major topics that will be taught. Just hearing information is not enough for most learners to retain it, so visual aids help to receive and retain information. Visual aids have the ability to stimulate and maintain the learners’ interest, simplify teaching, accelerate learning and reinforce the material being studied. There are a number of benefits
Charts and graphs provide a great deal of visual appeal. It can be used in the classrooms to present data, illustrate important patterns or relationships, and observe changes as data is altered. Reasons to use Charts and Graphs: Provide a visual representation of data; Effectively clarify information; Represents many different types of data; Make important ideas easily recognizable; Allow learners to perceive information quickly. There are a lot of types of charts. Some of them are bar
other in addition to learning from teacher feedback. In this lesson, I allow the students to practice the 5 fitness components in groups. In this lesson I have the students set fitness goals on the first day of the unit. The students are setting goals and participating in activities that extend what they are learning in class outside of the classroom. This is meant to bring meaning to the topic and is meant to give the students a chance to participate in authentic learning which Vygotsky says
Self assessment is a process in which you examine yourself in attempt to discover and learn more about yourself. Your likes, dislikes, behaviors, attitudes and habits can be found during this process. You can use the discoveries to your advantage by accepting or changing strengths and weaknesses. I plan on using this course to enhance my personal skills to become a better student and find success in earning my Bachelor of Arts degree at Ashford University in Social Science. Self Assessment is
My Learning Style Introduction Over a person’s lifetime, individuals develop particular skills enabling him or her to be either visual, auditory, or kinesthetic learners. The specific learning behavior most attractive to how an individual learns is a “manner in which a learner perceives, interacts with, and responds to the learning environment” (Celcia-Murcia, 2001, p. 469). Knowing which learning style greatly affects the individual’s learning process reinforces utilization of the characteristics
Learning styles Introduction: In this essay I will be describing various types of learning styles and stating the advantages and disadvantages of these learning styles. I will also inform you of the most commonly used method of finding out your own learning style, and I will inform you of the man who made this method. Finally, I will write about my own preferred learning styles and the strengths and weaknesses of the different learning styles. What is a ‘Learning Style’? “A learning style is
Adjusting learning and studying strategies can be a fast easy way to improve a college grade from a B to an A. Through studies of learning styles I have been able to decipher my learning types. I am a visual learner, have an integrated brain, meaning I use both hemispheres, and ranked highest in bodily-kinesthetic and logic-mathematical intelligence. There are three types of learning styles. They are: auditory, visual and kinesthetic. An auditory learner processes information by hearing and discussing
accumulate because many of us will studies hours upon hours and yet we are unable to remember the majority. How can this be possible? Studies shows that people have different preference in learning and our brains remember most based on our strongest learning ability. The three types of learning abilities are auditory, visual, or kinesthetic. After knowing which will help you remember better, this will help you in the different styles of studying which are note taking, reading and marking, planning for a
A large percentage of students with visual impairments learn in the general education classroom. General education teachers do not have to work alone; they can collaborate with TVIs and other experts trained to work with students who have visual impairments. Teachers can also use accommodations and modifications to alter their lessons to meet the needs of these students. General education teachers are presented with the unique opportunity to provide state required education while teaching daily living

The current study looks into the learning difficulties associated with the curriculum faced by visually impaired students. 1.2 Background of the study The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989) in its article 24 addresses the... ... middle of paper ... ...education and three years of general cycle of secondary education without paying school fees (Republic of Rwanda, 2008b). 1.9 Conclusion Education of children with visual impairment in Rwanda dates back in 1960s
Visual and verbal thinkers; a visual thinker is someone who uses pictures to think, and verbal thinkers think in words. If you were to look up the definition of visual thinking, the first thing that would pop up as an answer is; refers to a group of generative skills that, when practiced with rigorous discipline, results in the production of novel and original ideas. By seeking to discover visual forms that fit his/her underlying human experience, the student of visual thinking comes to know the
Introduction Scientists have researched the integration of visual and auditory spatial information for many decades. Through this research, the scientific community has acquired knowledge pertaining to the benefit that the brain receives from combining both visual and spatial information. The benefit from the contribution of both modalities in terms of spatial localization results because both audition and vision provide distinctive and complimentary information to the brain. Although scientific
Reflective learning response 1 There are a number of ways as a teacher that I can use Vygotsky’s socio-cultural theory within the classroom to enhance student’s learning and development. Vygotsky’s main idea was that learning and development should be a social collaborative activity and through scaffolding the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) this learning can and will be achieved (Bodrova & Leong, 2007). The interaction between children is just as crucial as interactions children have with adults
Involvement in visual arts enables children to begin building important life skills at a young age. Therefore, integrating art programs into the young child’s educational curriculum will help them reach maximum potential throughout their lifetime. Visual arts should be kept in schools because it enables children to express themselves, improves academics, and provides a therapeutic outlet that encourages maximum opportunity for development. One of the many benefits of involvement in visual arts is self-expression
Visual Impairment in Alzheimer's Disease The documentation of a severe form of dementia by Alois Alzheimer in 1907 began a massive investigation of the cause of this disorder. Some of the common symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease consist of memory loss, impaired language ability, impaired judgement, and learning (M. Wong, et al. , 1997). Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is mainly a disease of the cerebral cortex. Alzheimer's is marked structurally by the senile plaques, neurofibrillary tangles, and severe
