Trying to explain learning to anyone is a challenge I think. I feel as though the term “learning” is not just one straight forward definition. If I had to explain it to someone who hasn’t taken this class, my old definition would have been simply any information gathered and stored in the brain through the use of our five senses. Taking this class, and critically reading the text given, has made me realize that my explanation of learning was only partially correct. After conducting a comprehensive analysis of my own personal learning habits, I can now confidently provide a more accurate definition of the term. Learning is the ability to take in the world around you, while making connections through experience, developing an understanding of

I try to use all of them to the fullest extent. My sequence learning pattern is at an use first level with a score of 30. I was not surprised by this score because keeping things organized is mandatory in order for me to function. I always have to have clear, detailed instructions before I can begin anything. I like knowing exactly what is expected of me with no surprises. It is very beneficial for me as a learner to have examples to refer to when I need assistance. My precision learning pattern has a score of 29, which is also in the use first range. Again, not surprising considering the type of person I am. I am the type of learner who has to ask tons of questions. I need to know every piece of information about what it is I am about to tackle, weather it has relevance or not. I really enjoy being the person who always has the right answers. Knowing a lot of information makes me feel like an intelligent person. My technical reasoning learning pattern was at a 31, making it my highest scoring pattern. Again, in the use first range. I always seem to struggle to find the right words to articulate my thoughts. As with this paper, it is proving somewhat difficult for me …show more content…
My sequence pattern makes it very difficult for me to skip things I am confused by. I feel as though I need to do everything in order, so I don’t like moving on the next step until I have completed the first one. I can definitely forge some of my sequence so I can move on to something else and go back to the problem later. I feel like doing this would help me make better use of my time. My precision pattern often causes me to have more information than I know what to do with. Trying to incorporate all of my facts often causes me to navigate away from the topic I am supposed to be discussing. It also turns my paper into a lengthy list of irrelevant facts, which can be boring to the reader. I have a hard time deciding which information I do and don’t need. Forging my precision will also help me manage my time better. I would be able to do exactly what I need to do without wasting time on things that I don’t need to do. My technical reasoning causes me to have trouble asking for help. I don’t like asking for help and would prefer to figure things out on my own when I get confused. Forging my technical reasoning and learning that it is okay to ask for help sometimes would greatly benefit me. I think using this method would be helpful because it not only gives me an answer to my problem, it gives me a chance to see something from someone else’s point of view, which in turn may
