1. My “Felder & Soloman” questionnaire revealed the learning styles of Intuitive and Visual equally, followed by Active and Sequential. The learning experiences that would suit me best are ones that are engaging, interpreting clear information that connect the facts. The use of new ways of learning that is visually stimulating that replace words.
E.g. creating or seeing a mind map in action would suit both of my learning styles.
2. To support all learning styles in the classroom an array of teaching methods, tools and resources suited for everyone. Establishing lesson plans that contain strategies for multiple learning styles with the use of different activities.
E.g. Breakout Groups = Think Pear Share and/or Think Pear Square, combining learning style groups or integrating them.
3. My current knowledge of Information and Communication Technology is limited and I am yet to see and touch an Interactive Whiteboard, which would suit my learning styles. I would certainly want to have one for my learners. My capabilities would lay in the hands the computer and its use of the World Wide Web for research and information, teaching software and interactive games. I would encourage all the help I could get from the digital natives and get them to bring along there ICT’s into class.
