Learning Styles

Dear Sandra and all,

We as teachers are interested in getting all the students in the class to be our audience, our fans, not only some of them. According to "Multiple Intelligences" theory, there are individual differences among students. Consequently, some students are auditory learners, others are visual,tactile, kinesthetic, reading/writing-preference learners ...etc.What logically follows is teaching Style, study strategies, and assessment Methods.
Using technology in teaching can vary to address various senses; audio-clips for auditory learners, Video-clips (Virtual drawing, writing, pictures, images, maps...etc)for visual learners, writing -typing- tasks, using search engines for tactile learners. Homework, tests, evaluation forms can be assigned on the computer (through web-sites or blogs and WebQuests). Activities and tasks can vary to cover all the individual, pair and group work and interests.
