Learning Styles Test

I was a little concerned about doing the test as I don't believe in these kind as they never seem to be accurate but then I thought about it and decided to give it a go. I was amazed with the results and thought to myself, I knew this my whole schooling life, why didn't we have this kind of test for the teachers to learn about us, to help how we can learn and achieve the best we possibly can. As I am hearing impaired and throughout my whole schooling, teachers tried to give me easy work because they thought I couldn't do it. They never spoke to me about allowing me to sit in a class and listening then discussing what I understood. As I got older, the teachers soon learnt that I can do anything I put my mind to but with a little adjustment, I passed with flying colours.

 It might help you understand how you shouldn't judge a child by its disability or their confused face. :)

1. What is your learning style? What sorts of learning experiences would suit you best with your learning style? My learning style would be practical and lots of brainstorming from the children of what they about the topic, this way I am able to help them expand their learning by telling them what I understand or have the details of the topic being right. The children would have more confident to participate in brainstorming and practical activities where they do it the best way they know before a teacher saying something to them to help learn more. 2. In a traditional classroom of 25 students, how would you support the range of learning styles each lesson?   I would teach the children various topics through real life and facts as the children would be able to experience it and have more interest of wanting to learn. Theories wouldn't be interesting as it would be a long lesson for them to sit and listen. 3. With your current knowledge of ICT, how could your design and digital pedagogy support your learners better? Allowing the children to be more independent and willing to learn while interacting with each children one on one. 4. What sorts of profiling questions would you be asking about your learners to ensure you cater for everyone's preferences? How do you want to learn about something? Visual, verbal, graphs? How do you find working alone or in small groups? What reaction will I get if I say we will learning verbal when we have the opportunity to learn another way such as practical? 5. How does ICT support differences in learning styles? Using different learning styles that each child is able to understand the learning topic. Using one learning style and hoping every child understands what it is about, there is a little chance that is going to happen.
