Hi Jennifer! Thanks for your observations! It is always a challenge for us to ensure that we address all of the required competencies, skills and learning outcomes from a class or course, often in a very short time frame. This, coupled with the need to vary teaching methods to reach adult learners with differrent learning styles and needs can be particularly difficult. As you reference, time is the crucial resource! I have found in working with students who have special learning needs (and are aware of them) that inquiring as to what methods may have worked for them before, in comprehending and assimilating a topic or application, can help. We often talk about varying our teaching methodologies to adapt to different learning styles; sometimes with a student who has a learning challenge, we might try to tap and support more than one style at the same time - for example, provide a way to simultaneously hear, see and do when covering a topic and reinforcing a concept.
