Auditory learning

When I watched the lecture video, I was inspired, and I begin to ask myself if I was a peak performer. The lecture used several definitions to describe the peak performer, and there were several that I found striking. First, peak performers finish what they start, despite the challenges (Bethel University, 2013). Having this quality as a Bethel student is necessary because there will be challenges. I think peak performers have made a decision before starting a task that they will finish or meet…

multiple ways in which students learn. An example of the ways of learning is what Fleming (1995) recognizes as visual learners, auditory learners, reading and writing as well as students who learn better with kinesthetic techniques. These techniques can be utilized within the classroom to help student retain information better and to allow them to learn comfortably. Many students are able to use all four of Fleming’s (1995) four ways of learning, however, many students have a preference in which…

the learning fashion of each individual is something Richard Felder -a Professor at North Carolina State University- encourages when he states that “students have different strengths and preferences in the ways they take in and process information” (Felder 72). Accordingly, the teaching method used to increase knowledge must directly correlate with the learning style if the information wants to be consumed. The majority of professors and teachers only focus on one specific style of learning;…

entire life your senses have not only made you aware of your surroundings, but has also made connections and memories through what you see, smell, taste, touch and hear. All work together to make life something more than it really is. Throughout learning about every single sense, you can see the consistency of how our senses work together to understand safe and hazardous things of life. When the body is born or after a period of time goes without a sense, the body will naturally enhance the…

In traditional group learning, students work in groups with no attention paid to group functioning. In contrast, group work in cooperative learning is systematically prepared, structured, and monitored. Research shows that cooperative learning has numerous positive outcomes. At the academic level, it promotes essential thinking strategies such as problem solving, decision making, critical thinking, and creative thinking.In addition, the mechanisms of Kagan cooperative learning…

Based on the two learning style inventories that I took, I was very surprised by my results of where my strengths and weaknesses are as of what type of a learner I really am. My results from the VARK learning style inventory were strong in auditory and read/write. The results from Felder’s Inventory were strong in sensing and visual. I was pretty much balanced as a sequential but at the same time a global learner. I was also balanced as an active but at the same time a reflective learner…

different styles of learning and different types environments that they work best in. There are three main learning styles: kinesthetic, auditory, and visual. Based on what learning capacity you work best in, you can alter the way you study or the environment that you are working in. Personally, I consider myself to be a visual and auditory learner. However, the assessments I took, like the “Intellectual Strengths Mirror,” indicated that I am more of visual learner than an auditory learner. I…

talents, or mental skills. He called these intelligences and thought that they reflected human intelligent behavior more adequately than other views of intelligence. There are eight intelligences, the first one being verbal/linguistic. This involves learning best through reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Logical/mathematical learners learn best when working with numbers and abstract patterns. According to the text, visual/spatial learners like to work with graphic images, mind mapping,…

The CACHE values are important as they represent the professional way of how professionals and practitioner should work with children, young people and their families. A CACHE value that underpins working with children is, ‘Honour the confidentiality of information relating to the child and their family, unless its disclosure is required by law or is in the best interest of the child.’ It is by law that the practitioner and professionals follow and sign the Data Protection Act 1998. This is…

Increased skills allow for team sports and similar activities for interested children. * Skating, skipping and bike riding are typical skills gained during middle childhood. * Flexibility, balance, agility and force will all improve during these years as gross motor skills further develop. Communication Communication at the age of 13-14 is quite complex, their use of language, expressions and general communication are at a high level. Having an intelligent conversation with…
