Impact Of Learning Styles
Law schools and the legal profession are made up of diverse learners. A second implication is the need for faculty to know and teach about learning style.

Extractions: Professor Vernellia Randall, Director Vernellia R. Randall excerpted from: Vernellia R. Randall , The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, First Year Law Students and Performance, 26 Cumberland Law Review 63-103 (1995-1996)(180 Footnotes Omitted) PROLOGUE In 1966, I graduated from a segregated high school after having attended a two room elementary school. I graduated third in my class. I performed well enough on the SAT's to receive a national merit commendation for minority students. Nevertheless, my scores fell below the admissions standards for many of the schools to which I applied. It was a long time before I again achieved the same level of academic success that I had in high school. In college, my English teachers all told me I could not write and I believed them. In fact, I spent most of my adult life avoiding writing. If anyone had told me that what lawyers do is write, I would have never gone to law school. While majoring in nursing, I was counseled several times to consider another career. In fact, I failed medical-surgical nursing twice. Had it not been for a nursing educator who decided to teach me "how" to study, I likely would have never graduated. Eventually, I did graduate from the University of Texas with a 2.3 grade point average (GPA).

REACHING THE SECOND TIER: LEARNING AND TEACHING STYLES IN COLLEGE SCIENCE EDUCAT
Unfortunatelyin part because teachers tend to favor their own learning styles, in part because they instinctively teach the way they were taught in most
http://www.ncsu.edu/felder-public/Papers/Secondtier.html

Extractions: In her recent study of college science instruction, Sheila Tobias [19] defines two tiers of entering college students, the first consisting of those who go on to earn science degrees and the second those who have the initial intention and the ability to do so but instead switch to nonscientific fields. The number of students in the second category might in fact be enough to prevent the shortfall of American scientists and engineers that has been widely forecast for the coming decade. The thrust of Tobias's study is that introductory science courses are responsible for driving off many students in the second tier. The negative features of the courses she cites include their (1) failure to motivate interest in science by establishing its relevance to the students' lives and personal interests; (2) relegation of students to almost complete passivity in the classroom; (3) emphasis on competition for grades rather than cooperative learning; and (4) focus on algorithmic problem-solving as opposed to conceptual understanding. Recent educational research provides theoretical support for Tobias's assertions, which are based largely on anecdotal accounts. The research shows that students are characterized by significantly different

http://agelesslearner.com/intros/lstyleintro.html

Extractions: by Marcia L. Conner You may realize that people learn and process information in different ways, but can you describe what those differences are or improve the unique ways that you learn? For decades, education researchers designed models that differentiate how people learn, yet the results are often harder to understand than the people they describe. This introduction puts learning styles information into easy to understand language and provides sources where you can learn more. I also offer a Learning Style Assessment that you can use to gauge your dominant learning style and techniques you can use to benefit from your individuality. Overview of learning styles Links to other websites about learning styles Learning styles classify different ways people learn and how they approach information. If you feel like you cant learn something important even after you use a method a friend, a parent, a colleague, or a teacher suggested you might have a different learning style than that person and their approach might now be the best approach for you. You learn and processes information in your own special way, though we all share some learning patterns, preferences, and approaches. Knowing your own style can also help you realize that other people may approach the same situation in a way thats different from your own.

http://www.washington.edu/computing/windows/issue20/johnson.html

Extractions: Cultivating Multiple Learning Styles in Fish 101 Fred Johnson, senior lecturer in the School of Fisheries , teaches the big one Fish 101 . Many of the 250 students who enroll in the course are non-majors seeking science distribution credits. With such a large number of students, Johnson strives to create an environment that teaches in multiple ways to address varied learning styles and levels of achievement. "If you can teach a diverse group of students and have them learn at their different levels simultaneouslyrather than having some bored and others over-challengedthen you are really pulling something off," smiles Johnson. "That is the high art of teaching." In pursuing that art, Johnson has experimented with email, spreadsheets, Web pages, and multimedia, but finds it necessary to continually monitor and evaluate their use to be sure they actually help students reach the objectives of the course. Once a conventional lecture-and-quiz-sections class, Fish 101 has changed. Johnson has been experimenting with new approaches to the course, including optional "active learning" activities. Students get extra credit for participating, and, if they complete five activities, they can substitute that score for their lowest test grade. "We have been tinkering with the 101 class to give students a richer educational experience with learning options that appeal to different learning styles," explains Johnson.

How learners learn is as important to consider as the content being taught. Learner-centered education strives to make both content and methods appropriate for the learner (Conti, 1998). Although learning is an individual event, it often occurs in a group setting (Felder, 1996). In any group, the presenter can assume that participants have a variety of learning styles. Addressing learning style issues in the delivery of instruction can maximize its effectiveness. the environment, such as room temperature or lighting; emotions, such as motivation and persistence; sociological factors, such as individual or group learning; and physiological factors, such as sensory preferences and variable energy levels.

http://www.bvu.edu/departments/academicaffairs/tltc/articles/learning_style.asp

Extractions: ABOUT BVU ACADEMICS ADMISSIONS ATHLETICS ... Ask a Question The Point About Learning Styles Return To Index I have a colleague in Cognitive Psychology who rolls his eyes every time I mention Learning Styles or Multiple Intelligences. His claim is that learning style inventories are self-fulfilling prophecies that dont really describe how we think and like to learn they are simply pre-determined boxes we fit ourselves into. As a predictor of learning success, they dont amount to much he claims. Certainly learning styles and multiple intelligences constitute something of a fad among educators from kindergarten through higher education. You hear about them everywhere. And my friend in Cognitive Psychology has a serious argument they are not necessarily reliable indicators of how individuals can and will learn. Some educators argue that this yet another tactic for pandering to students and dumbing down the curriculum by making sure we now teach in the way that will be most appealing. If students cant read, then well just have to show them pictures. But these objections miss the point about learning styles theories. The idea is that as students WE tend to prefer one or two ways of learning and that is how we teach. Learning styles arent reliable indicators of future success, they are targets we can use to help our student achieve a balance so that they can approach problem-solving and learning from a variety of angles. The idea is not to find the way that best appeals to this student or that, but to make sure we are sensitive to the variety of ways of learning and knowing and to incorporate all of them in a balanced way into our teaching so our students can work on areas where they may be weak, but not without opportunities to build on their inherent strengths.

http://www.treadwell.co.nz/searching_notes.htm

Extractions: Our 23 Quality Criteria Asking clever questions and then searching the web for solutions The key problem solving skills involve: Order the book and get all the details, exercises, detailed suggestions for researching the internet and much more. How do encourage students to think? The technology we now have allows us for the first time to ask clever questions, questions that force students to manipulate information in ways that encourage the development of understanding and the improvement of conceptual models. In the past we could not ask students to compare an Allasaurus and an elephant and suggest 5 similarities and 5 differences in how they lived, because we could not resource the question. We have 29 books in the library on dinosaurs but none would have given the information we require at the level we required, so we have been trapped teaching thematic, broad-based projects such as pollution, travel, space, dinosaurs, Romans, etc.

Extractions: In earlier articles I discussed Howard Gardner's learning styles and their connection culturally. In this section, I want to outline some practical tips for implementing these ideas. Some of these can be implemented very easily; others take a bit of time and, of course, though. Before I do that I want to make a distinction between intelligence and learning style. They are not really the same. This is an excerpt - full text available in a pdf file.
Experiential Learning Cycle
The Manual of learning styles published by Peter Honey) has shed some interesting light on how we learn, and how we prefer to learn. Preferred learning styles.
http://www.netwise.ac.uk/cms/teach/learn.html

Extractions: Work done by an American educational psychologist (Kolb, David A, Experiential Learning published by Prentice Hall in 1984), and some English consultants (Peter Honey and Alan Mumford. The Manual of Learning Styles published by Peter Honey) has shed some interesting light on how we learn, and how we prefer to learn. The start point is a diagram which we call The Experiential Learning Cycle: There are four elements in this cycle, and a learning process may begin at any point. Note that although the page is flat, implying that the cycle is also flat, that in reality you should think of this as a spiral coming out of the page towards you - each time you travel around the cycle, you begin again at a higher level of learning (if you are learning that is). Experiencing happens whenever you do something which makes use of learning to date, and by doing, you may well figure out how to do it better. You attempt something, and some evidence is available which indicates levels of success. A great deal on information is available to you (the 'doer'), but its interpretation will be biased according to your previous experience and existing skill.
