(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home/evelyntest/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114Learning is the process through which individuals acquire knowledge, skills, or behaviors. It usually originates from an experience, an event, or a sequence of events that happens on several occasions and help us learn. Learning is not confined to the realms of formal educational setups like schools or colleges. It is an ongoing activity and cannot be bound by time or place.<\/p>\n
However, the likelihood of acquiring knowledge or skill may vary with time or place. For instance, humans learn elementary social skills during their childhood years at their homes. Professional skills, though, develop during their adulthood at an institution. Similarly, how different individuals prefer to learn or are likely to learn is also not predetermined. For instance, an individual may prefer learning by seeing. Yet another might prefer learning by writing. Learning Styles are thus the different approaches through which individuals learn.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Every individual has a unique learning style<\/a>. This is because how an individual gathers, understands, organizes, and remembers information is unique. However, the learning style of an individual does not stay the same throughout. It changes and evolves. Factors such as age, subject area, learning environment, social environment, cognitive skills, and education influence the learning style. An individual\u2019s unique learning style does not in any way limit their learning abilities. It is just their preferred way of learning, not their only way of learning. An individual may prefer to learn differently under different situations.<\/p>\n The articles What is learning? at Queen\u2019s University<\/a> and Learning Styles at the Vanderbilt University<\/a> websites offer more information on learning and learning styles to the reader.<\/p>\n Researchers have conducted detailed studies to classify and describe the different learning preferences. A model, known as the VARK<\/a>, by Neil Fleming and another one by David Kolb are widely discussed and cited on the internet. This article discusses the seven most commonly identified and discussed learning styles. The three fundamental types are visual, aural, and kinesthetic. The other four styles are verbal, logical, social, and solitary. Each of these styles is also known by alternate names in different print and online texts.<\/p>\n The article The Four Different Types Of Learners, And What They Mean To Your Presentations [Infographic] on the Prezi Blog<\/a> provides a short introduction to fundamental types of learners. It also advises on the design of suitable infographics for such learners. Another article, The Importance of Understanding Employee learning Styles for working professionals, is available on the BGW-CPA<\/a> webpage.<\/p>\n Developing and employing effective pedagogy<\/a> has always been an area of concern for educators. Employment of ineffective pedagogies may, ultimately, result in poor learning outcomes. The concept of learning styles helps mitigate this problem. Knowledge of learning styles helps an instructor decide the type of exercises, activities, and method of instruction for a class. The method of instruction for visual learners may include charts, graphs, posters, or pictures. The method of instruction for auditory learners may include recorded speeches, podcasts, or audiobooks.<\/p>\n A balanced combination of different methods of instruction is suitable for a class of students with different styles of learning. In turn, the adoption of appropriate pedagogy aids the learning process and intended learning outcomes are achieved. This also ensures that the learning sessions become more fulfilling. Therefore, it is essential to identify the learning style of individuals before picking suitable strategies for teaching and learning. VARK<\/a> is one of the most popular among the many online tools, and it helps in identifying the learning preferences of an individual. It is available free of cost for use by academia. Businesses and other users may have to pay a fee to use the tool.<\/p>\n A popular counterview states that adopting teaching strategies following learning styles yields no distinct benefits in terms of learning outcomes. The video resource Learning styles & the importance of critical self-reflection | Tesia Marshik | TEDxUWLaCrosse on YouTube, offers an insight into the counterview.<\/p>\n This article is part of a series of articles on Learning tyles.<\/p>\n Pexels, Pixabay, Icons made by Freepik<\/a> from www.flaticon.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n Learning Styles are the different approaches through which individuals learn.
