My Learning style

This is my learning style image.


When I took the learning style online quiz, my results showed that my two learning styles are solitary and logical. Therefor, the types of learning experiences that would suit me, would be activities that require working alone, and activities that use logic, reasoning and systems. I guess that's why I enjoy science and am going to be teaching it, since it requires students to understand the whole process of how things work.

With all the different learning styles, I can see why it is so difficult to get all students engaged in class, especially when classes would be a mix of students that fall under the category of social learning style and solitary learning style. I think it would be beneficial in classrooms, to set up stations, all with similar information, but with different activities based on the different learning styles. For example, if a year 10 science class were look at the heart and how it works, there could be stations set up with activities such as putting a diagram of the heart back together (visual), a crossword (verbal), a heart dissection (physical), a group activity (social) and a silent quiz (solitary). If the information was given first, maybe in the way of notes, this would just be a way of reiterating the information and hopefully ensuring that all students have a grasp of the concept, no matter what their learning style.

These activities are not restricted to the traditional way of teaching, but can easily be conducted on computers, thus allowing the integration of ICT's into the classroom.

I think it would may be difficult to incorporate the different learning styles into some subjects, such as maths and English.
