Visual Learners

Improved Essays
Did you know that there are different kinds of learning types that kids are used to when learning my three examples are visual learners verbal learners and bodily-kinesthetic. Those are the types of learning that I find are the most interestin, well I was reading some of the ideas from Howard Gardner it open my eyes to the vast amount of ways to learn that kids implicate in their day-to-day lives. It is very fascinating because it 's like a computer that needs different types of software to run the same way. That in turn makes it very difficult for teachers to teach every student the same especially when they have multiple it also explains why some students have a difficult time learning the same speed as others and also divides students from one another.
Visual Learners are people that have an easier time when they are shown how to do a problem with verbal and visual techniques examples would be your class is doing a science experiment the professor will talk about the compounds that they 're mixing Embrace

Do the type of people that would have to basically do it to learn how it works examples would be like fixing the sink once you 've done it your body remembers how to do it again. They 'll find it easier to do it the second time around because their brain has registered all the steps and their bodies remember the mechanics to it, the biggest example I can give you are handyman mechanics basically anyone that does Construction or building. Academic example would be a surgeon, they might not look like the most likely of examples but they also learn by doing just like other Hands-On learners but the only difference would be that they also need to be academically sound. Ways to study for a Hands-On learner would be giving them a stress ball while they study letting them listen to music so basically keeping them occupied while their study to help them

    In Chapter Four of Holler If You Hear Me by Gregory Michie, the author describes how some of the other veteran teachers in his education classes expressed their views on the disconnect between education theory and classroom reality. One such example of this disconnect is the theory of differentiated instruction. I have learned a lot about differentiated instruction in my Foundations Block classes this semester, since I had not previously heard of the concept. In theory, this practice is a great way to tailor instruction to each student’s individual needs, as well as encourage learning and exploration.…

    Like so many, I felt an undeniable call to action after watching Davis Guggenheim’s film Waiting for Superman. The film poignantly illustrates the imperative need for a long overdue paradigm shift in American education. In the film, activist, educator and founder of the Harlem Children’s Zone, Geoffrey Canada, shares the disillusionment he felt as a child upon realizing that Superman was not coming to save him from the perils of his impoverished South Bronx neighborhood. His message in the film is that we must become our own superheroes.…

    I learn best through engaging hands-on activities. For example, I’ve learned how to perform CPR on a dummy, dissect a baby pig, and partake in an EMT simulation. Performing CPR on a dummy has taught me how deep I need to push down when performing CPR and how fast I need to go. Dissecting a baby pig has presented a better visual for me to locate various organs/systems and the EMT simulation taught me to think on my feet and work quickly in a team environment.…

    Teaching students to speak up and to participate without worry. To see kids playing but only when told and asking questions that were not from their imagination, but from what they seem to believe that the teachers would accept. With finally showing proof that teachers would not want to encourage, for they themselves are being pressured to only teach what they are mainly paid to do. This is important for the reason to be because the system needs to pull back and understand the students thoughts and not subjugated them to only be empty bodies who’s main purpose is to follow orders and never question their instructor. Curiosity is the wick in the candle of learning, however, it may never be lit if the flame was never there to begin…

    One thing that stuck out from this article was in the Teaching section. The author explained that students learn best in “chunks” of 7-10 minutes. After a short explanation of a concept, allow students to perform a processing activity to apply this new knowledge. Repeat this process until the full lesson has been taught, and then a longer activity would be permissible. I can see how this would be useful with my 7th grade…

    Students learn in multiple ways and education isn’t one size fits all. While one student may thrive when you teach visually another may struggle to learn anything visually. Teaching is almost like a juggling act, but which elements should you juggle? When I was a first-year teacher I envisioned myself at the front of the classroom talking with my diligent fifth-grade students who were quickly taking notes and absorbing every word I was speaking. After my first day as a teacher that dream came to a screaming halt and I had to rethink my whole teaching approach.…

    During the interview, I could recall some of the information that was discussed during class such as the different ways of learning. Not every child may comprehend the information the same way as others do. According to Sadker & Zittleman (2015), “Intriguing research suggests that learning styles may be as unique as handwriting.” There are three factors that contribute to each student’s learning style. Physiology is the different body rhythms that cause some students to learn better in the morning and others in the afternoon.…

    SEP #4 In my observation of a Kindergarten class, there were many different teaching methods used. The teacher used many visual aids, and example would be when she asked the students to draw a pig. She displayed a pig on the board that was drawn by a guest speaker, and the students were asked to replicate the drawing. The teacher I observed also used games to enhance the student’s learning.…
