Learning Style Assessment
I'm wondering how long it should take to make assessments if the learning block is short, i.e. three weeks. Is is better to use the blanket technique which is to say make the presentations from several learning styles just to cover all the bases?
Hi David- Welcome to Ed 103! Wow - three weeks is pretty accelerated! From your description, you are doing a great job of reaching all the learning styles. Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career! Susan
I agree. My class in particular is only three weeks long with lots of kinesthetic training. I always try to structure my delivery with lecture (along with power points), demonstration, re cap, overview of the main points trying to be taught, teaching from behind as the students are trying to perform the tasks and then feedback at the end of the day. This tends to work well for all of the classes as a whole. What do you think?
Hi James - In such an accelerated class I agree that using all the styles is probably the way to go. Best wishes - Susan
