to get the most out of your learning experience. One of my favorite strategies to use when I learn about the locations of different countries are mnemonic devices because you can make up a word that has a meaning for each of the countries in a certain region. By doing this you can have an easier time remembering which countries are next to each other and it gives you a great way to improve your memory through a phrase that gives the material more meaning. Another learning strategy I use is to…

the situation can help or hinder the learning—if we are open to explore, the learning can be fun (like learning new recipes, eating interesting food) or if we are not open, it can be like fingernails on chalkboard (for us and those we must learn about). In many cases, learning about new cultures are not a choice, I have a friend whose new job it is to train the Chinese to take his job (it is going offshore)—pretty hard to have a good attitude about that.…

succeed in the same learning environment is a little far fetched. In ISD 2142, the personalized learning plans that are set in place are based off the students standardized testing scores. However, this is not always the greatest method of determining the student’s intelligence. Test taking is hard, especially when it is something as big as the MCA tests. The stress of trying to take one of these tests can impact the success of the student. Instead of basing the personalized learning plans of…

It has helped teachers, leaders, schools and colleges modify their practices in order to afford more learning. Lesson Study, since being introduced in the late 1990’s has spread around the world and is now considered the teacher development model in several high profile programmes across a number of teaching schools, their alliances, teacher training programmes…

from the “Learning Lab” in elementary school I was able to just barely get by but I always found myself behind everyone my own age. My memories from being in the Learning Lab were really traumatizing at the time. I was always singled out, and pulled from the class to get extra attention that I did not appreciate at the time. I know now that without that extra attention, I would struggle more as I progressed in school. Since I had an IEP in elementary school, I was held back from learning a…

During our LET 1 year, we learned the seven army value, one of them being selfless service. One of our major project that year was on service learning. Service learning is a teaching and learning strategy that integrates community service and enrich learning experience, teach civic responsibility and strengthen community. It was mandatory and it was worth a test grade, but it was still a great opportunity for my group to use what we learn and use…

In order to keep myself from losing information, I can do many things over the summer that are both enjoyable and effective in allowing me to continue and enhance my learning experiences. Some things I plan to do over my summer that may help my learning include reading, taking weeklong camps, and…

Adult Learning Paper Brianne N. Hebdo Ohio Christian University November 12, 2017 Adult Learning Paper I never would have realized that the way I learn or understand things would be a topic of interest to someone. Never once have I considered adult learning to be an interesting enough topic to research. Adult’s like children learn differently. Based on the little bit of research I’ve done I can see there are many different theories and each theory comes with its own set of assumptions. In this…

The Acquisition/Learning Hypothesis: In its most general version, the Acquisition / Learning Distinction Hypothesis is deemed to be the most salient all the hypotheses in Krashen's theory as well as the most recognized and valued conceptualization by most linguists and language practitioners. In practice, Krashen postulates that there are two independent systems in a second language competence: 'the acquired system' and 'the learned system'. On the one hand, the 'acquired system' or…

Children with learning disabilities are only limited to their full potential if proper help is never given. Being a teacher will place you in many different situations in which one, if not a few more, students will fail to comprehend the material being thought. The fact that majority of the class might understand does not mean everyone will, some need a little extra help. It is important to understand that not all kids can learn the same way. In the video, Learning about Learning Disabilities, a…
