π Exploring Student Learning Styles
This paragraph introduces the concept of learning styles, emphasizing their importance for teachers to understand and cater to their students' strengths. It credits Howard Gardner for his work on the subject and discusses the first learning style: interpersonal, where students benefit from group interactions and peer learning. The paragraph suggests strategies such as forming study groups and avoiding monotonous lectures to support these learners, who may pursue careers in teaching, counseling, or sales.
π§ Intrapersonal and Kinesthetic Learning Styles
The second paragraph delves into intrapersonal learners, who prefer solitary learning environments and self-directed tasks. It recommends allowing these students to set their own goals and choose topics, suggesting learning models like blended, personalized, flipped classroom, and independent learning. The paragraph then moves on to kinesthetic learners, who enjoy physical activity during learning. It advises incorporating hands-on activities and manipulatives to engage these students, who may be drawn to careers in sports, labor, or construction.
π£ Verbal and Visual Learning Styles
This paragraph focuses on verbal learners, who excel with written and spoken word activities, and visual learners, who prefer learning through diagrams and infographics. For verbal learners, the paragraph suggests facilitating discussions and debates to allow them to express themselves verbally, which can lead to careers in politics, writing, or speaking. Visual learners are described as having strong spatial recognition and are likely to pursue careers in video art, architecture, or other visually-oriented fields.
π’ Logical and Auditory Learning Styles
The final paragraph discusses logical learners, who enjoy problem-solving and clear, objective lessons, and auditory learners, who benefit from sound, rhyme, and music in their learning process. Logical learners are likely to become scientists, mathematicians, or detectives, while auditory learners may find careers as sound engineers, musicians, or songwriters. The paragraph concludes by emphasizing the importance of recognizing and accommodating each learning style to support individual student success.

student learning styles this video will
explore the seven different learning
styles with a credit to Howard garner
for his work a brief definition of
learning styles would be the preferred
method of learning and processing
information for students before
investigating each style let's answer
the question why are student learning
styles so important as teachers it's
important to know your students
especially their strengths teachers
should want to know what is the best way
to get an individual student to process
and absorb information teachers can then
use that information to help their
students succeed academically the first
learning style we will begin with is
interpersonal
interpersonal learners benefit from
interactions with other students these
learners will play off the ideas of
others so develop small study groups and
peer to peer tutoring sessions to
accommodate these students view your
classroom as a community of learners and
avoid tedious lectures present
opportunities for these students to work
and learn from groups of others
interpersonal learners have excellent
communication skills these students will
one day pursue careers in teaching
counseling and in sales
next up intra personal learners
intrapersonal learners are also called
solitary learners because they prefer a
learning environment without interaction
as a teacher allow the students to set
goals and tasks for themselves as well
as letting them choose their own topics
these students will benefit from several
different types of learning models
blended learning personalized learning a
flipped classroom model and independent
learning models try and find ways to
allow these students to study quietly
and free from distractions these
students often grow up to work in
positions where they
spend much of their time in a cubicle
interpersonal learners pursue careers in
data analysis research and as security
guards moving on to kinesthetic learners
kinesthetic learners are also called
physical learners because they enjoy
movement and exercise as they learn as a
teacher try and give students the
opportunity to walk around and stretch
and provide class activities now
some courses are better designed to
allow teachers to provide kinesthetic
activities in the classroom when it
comes to instruction incorporate
hands-on learning activities use
manipulatives and different projects
these are the students you will find
playing a number of different sports and
they are very physically active these
students will pursue careers in sports
labor and in construction the next
learning style is verbal the verbal
learning style is also known as the
linguistic learning style verbal
learners make most out of both the
written and verbal word look to
facilitate roundtable discussions
classroom debates and more sharing of
ideas these students are natural-born
speakers and will excel when given a
chance to verbally express themselves
therefore give these students the
opportunity to present in front of their
peers these students are often the ones
that will argue a teacher at any chance
they get verbal style learners often
find careers in politics
writing and in speaking continuing
forward visual learners from my
experience in the classroom and through
years of conducting student learning
style inventories I can say visual
learning style is one of the most
popular learning styles the visual
learners prefer to learn through flow
charts diagrams mind maps and many
infographics I myself am a visual
learner
that is why I paint pictures with these
videos for my case in the case of many
others information is learned through
space and Direction visual learners get
careers in video art and architecture
they have great spatial recognition and
are able to visualize information on a
large scale as well as on a small scale
sixth on the list is logical logical
learners are sometimes called
mathematical style learners math itself
is all about simplification and
reasoning when teaching look to give
logical learners the clearest
explanation possible these types of
students enjoy working on problems and
figuring out the answer to the problems
they prefer lessons that are very
objective in nature provide information
through bullet points to-do lists and
give students a chance to think
strategically also logical learners get
very engaged with difficult problems
most of the time they find careers that
scientists mathematicians and detectives
these are your students that excel in
math and enjoy a good mystery show and
the last learning style is auditory
auditory learners are sometimes called
aural learners or even musical learners
these types of students make the most of
sound rhyme jingles and music now anyone
who loves music understands that music
at its best creates an emotional
connection the emotional connection to
sound and music leads to better
comprehension auditory learners often
find work as sound engineers musicians
and even song writers
this is the last learning style on the
list but definitely not the least
important each learning style is
important to the individual
so right now I just want to say thank
you for your time and do not forget to
subscribe to this channel thank you
