Learning styles

Understanding a person’s learning-style can help in bringing about a match between the learners on the one hand and fields of study and career choice on the other. It also helps to identify one major factor, contributing to either very successful learning or at the other end, very unsuccessful learning.

Learning Styles: 1. Innovative learners: They are interested in personal meaning; then learn by watching, sensing and feeling; they are idea people, and have plenty of innovation and imagination and they need reasons why they have to study a particular unit. 

2. Analytic learners: They love facts and enjoy forming models and concepts; they rely heavily on learning by reflecting upon ideas. In comparison with types one learners, analytic learners seek the facts of the situation, rather than the reasons for the studying the material. 

3. Common sense learners: makes use of concrete experiences, with emphasis on how something works. They draw inferences through kinesthetic experiences.

 4. Dynamic learners: they learn through the process of self-discovery and seek to determine what can be developed through concepts and ideas. They adapt well to change, even seeking it, and they tend to be flexible in their relationships with others. Dynamic learners learn concretely and seek to process their learning actively.
