The Learning styles of Students in St. Michael’s College
INTRODUCTION
The term “learning styles” speaks to the understanding that every student learns differently. Technically, an individual’s learning style refers to the preferential way in which the student absorbs processes, comprehends and retains information. For example, when learning how to build a clock, some students understand the process by following verbal instructions, while others have to physically manipulate the clock themselves. This notion of individualized learning styles has gained widespread recognition in education theory and classroom management strategy. Individual learning styles depend on cognitive, emotional and environmental factors, as well as one’s prior experience. In other words: everyone’s different. It is important for educators to understand the differences in their students’ learning styles, so that they can implement best practice strategies into their daily activities, curriculum and assessments. The setting of learning objectives in a lesson provide opportunities to focus on and revisit the learning objective through approaches such as questioning, peer and self-assessment, written and oral feedback. It is important for us all to recognize that there are many ways to give learning objectives to students and also to re-visit them when appropriate. The aim of this study of the toolkit is to give ideas for some different approaches.
