“If Children Are Not Learning The Way We Teach,We Need To Teach The Way They Learn”
We all aspire to be good teachers but do we allow all our students to be good learners?
Should teachers adapt to learners, or learners to teachers?

Gardner claims that individuals possess at least eight independent types of intelligence (2004).
Logico-
Mathematical

Kinesthetic
Linguistic
Naturalist
Intrapersonal

Eight
Intelligences
What are the Intelligences?
Logico-Mathematical:the use of logical methods and to solve mathematical problems
Spatial:to use and manipulate space
Musical:the ability to create, perform, and appreciate music
Interpersonal:to understand others’ needs, intentions, and motivations
Intrapersonal:the ability to understand one’s own motivations and emotions
Naturalist:the ability to recognize, identify, classify objects
Linguistic:the ability to use language

Learning Styles
Visual
• Make up 70% of population
• Ideas, concepts, data and other information are
associated with images and techniques
• Prosper when shown graphs, or graphic organizers, such as webs, concept maps and idea maps
• Use symbols to represent ideas and information
• May have exceptional "photographic memories"
Tips for Visual Learners
• Relate best to written information, notes, diagrams, maps, graphs, flashcards, highlighters, charts, pictures computers.
• Need a quiet place to study.
• When possible have written instructions rather than oral ones.
• Benefit from previewing reading material.
• Write down directions or draw a map.
• Need to see the instructor's facial expressions and body language.
• Concentrate better with clear line of sight to blackboard or visual aids.
Learning Styles
Auditory / Verbal
• Makes up about 30% of population
• Use phrases such as "Sounds good to me," and "It's starting to ring a bell.“
• Learn most effectively by listening to information delivered orally, in lectures, speeches, and oral sessions.
Tips for Auditory Learners
• Listen to music or having different sounds in the background (TV, people talking, etc.) while reading
• Make tapes of class notes and then listen to them.
• Remember details by trying to "hear" previous discussions.
• Participate in class discussions.
• Ask questions and volunteer in class.
• Read assignments out loud.
• Put information into a rhythmic pattern such as a poem or song.

Tactile/Kinaesthetic
• Learning takes place by the student actually carrying out a physical activity, rather than listening to a lecture or merely watching a demonstration.
• “Natural discovery” learners
• Have realizations through doing, experiencing, touching, moving or being activeTips for Tactual Learners
• Remember by using tools, building models and manipulating things.
• Benefit from hands-on teaching techniques, role-playing and simulations.
• Listen to background music while studying or working
• Learn more effectively when free to move
• Studies effectively laying on floor or bed, fidgeting, tapping fingers or touching objectsLearning Styles Sequential-Global

Teaching StyleModel 4: McCarthy’s 4MAT system
The four learning styles identified by McCarthy are:
•
Type 1: Innovative Learnersare primarily interested in personal meaning. They need to have reasons for learning--ideally, reasons that connect new information with personal experience and establish that information's usefulness in daily life. Some of the many instructional modes effective with this learner type are cooperative learning, brainstorming, and integration of content areas (e.g., science with social studies, writing with the arts, etc.).#p#分页标题#e#
•
Type 2: Analytic Learnersare primarily interested in acquiring facts in order to deepen their understanding of concepts and processes. They are capable of learning effectively from lectures, and enjoy independent research, analysis of data, and hearing what "the experts" have to say.
•
Type 3: Common Sense Learnersare primarily interested in how things work; they want to "get in and try it." Concrete, experiential learning activities work best for them--using manipulatives, hands-on tasks, kinesthetic experience, etc.
•
Type 4: Dynamic Learnersare primarily interested in self-directed discovery. They rely heavily on their own intuition, and seek to teach both themselves and others. Any type of independent study is effective for these learners. They also enjoy simulations, role play, and games.INDIVIDUAL REFLECTIONS
What?
(What does this mean to you and your educational philosophy)?
So What?
(What implications does this have on your work as a
student teacher)?
Now What?
(What are you going to do with this information)?
(Learning Styles)Activity
Each group will brainstorm to come up with at least two instructional activity/strategies based on a particular learning style.
1. Select someone to scribe
2. Chart your strategies and post them on the wall.
3. Gallery Walk (all participants)
4. Reflective and share (large group)The Learner’s and Teacher’s contribution to the learning process
aWhat do learners contribute to the learning process?
•Past experience
•Individual perception
•New ways of thinking
•New concepts
•Energy and enthusiasm
bHow can teachers/lecturers help the learner?
•Build on learners’ past experience
•Make the learning relevant to the individual
•Identify learner’s preferred learning style
•Highlight new ways of learning/studying
•Motivate the learnerExpanding the t & l repertoire through unconvergence……..
