1. Types of Learners Which one are you?

2. So what’s your style???

3. 3 Different Types of Learners 1. Listening Learners: Lectures, discussion, direct instruction. Being told something. AUDITORY 2. Seeing Learners: Watching someone demonstrate something, being shown. VISUAL 3. Experiential Learners: Learning by doing, touching, experiencing. KINESTHETIC

4. It’s simple really... Think about one of life's earliest lessons - often taught by our mothers: The Stove Can Burn You. Listening learners heard their mother, believed the information, and never touched a stove. Seeing learners watched their brother touch the stove, and never touched it. Experience learners touched the stove; but only once!

5. Discuss with your groups... Here’s your problem, you need to paint a room. How much paint and what supplies do you need? How would a Listening Learner solve this problem? How would a Seeing Learner solve this problem? How would an Experiential Learner solve this problem?

6. How did you do? Listening Learners might: Call a painter, a friend, or paint store, and ask them for instructions before starting. Might attend a course on painting at the paint store. Seeing Learners might: Look online for answers, read several websites. Go to a bookstore and find books and magazines about home improvement and painting. Go to the paint store and read the back of paint cans. Watch a course at the paint store. Experience Learners might: Go buy a can of paint, a brush, and start painting. If there's not enough paint or you have the wrong brush, you just buy more. Eventually you learn how much paint and what supplies are required

7. So what kind of learner are you? Why did you choose the one you did?
