The document discusses the 7 main learning styles: linguistic, logical-mathematical, visual/spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, and intrapersonal. Each style is defined and examples are provided of techniques that cater to each style to help students learn in a way that matches their preferences. The goal is to understand different learning styles and tap into each student's potential by teaching in a manner that works best for their individual needs.

2. People are different
People learn in different ways and it is
important to tap the potential of each
student in the classroom in a way that
helps them learn.
It is important to students to be understood
and be taught in the way they learn so
they can get the most out of the
information being taught.
3. The 7 Styles
Linguistic
Logical-
Mathematical
Visual/spatial
Bodily-Kinesthetic
Musical
Interpersonal
Intrapersonal
4. Linguistic
The verbal style involves both
the written and spoken word.
If you use this style, you find it
easy to express yourself, both
in writing and verbally. You
love reading and writing. You
like playing on the meaning
or sound of words, such as in
tongue twisters, rhymes,
limericks and the like. You
know the meaning of many
words, and regularly make
an effort to find the meaning
of new words. You use these
words, as well as phrases you
have picked up recently,
when talking to others.
5. How to be a Linguistic learner.
If you are a verbal learner, try the techniques
that involve speaking and writing. Find ways
to incorporate more speaking and writing in
techniques. For example, talk yourself through
procedures in the simulator, or use recordings
of your content for repetition.
Scripting is also powerful for you. You don't just
have to write them down. Record your scripts
using a tape or digital audio recorder (such as
an MP3 player), and use it later for reviews.
Study in groups to hear what the other
classmates have to say.
6. Logical-Mathematical
If you use the logical
style, you like using your
brain for logical and
mathematical
reasoning. You can
recognize patterns
easily, as well as
connections between
seemingly meaningless
content. This also leads
you to classify and
group information to
help you learn or
understand it.
7. How to be a Logical-
Mathematical learner.
While you study, create and use lists by
extracting key points from your
material. You may also want to use
statistics and other analysis to help you
identify areas you may want to
concentrate on.
Keep these lists on a portable device
(iPod, tablet, etc.).
Download Sudoku or other math
app/games to keep your brain sharp.
8. Visual/Spatial
If you use the visual style, you
prefer using images, pictures,
colors, and maps to organize
information and communicate
with others. You can easily
visualize objects, plans and
outcomes in your mind's eye. You
also have a good spatial sense,
which gives you a good sense of
direction. You can easily find your
way around using maps, and you
rarely get lost. When you walk
out of an elevator, you
instinctively know which way to
turn.
9. How to be a Visual/Spatial
learner.
Some students rely upon a visual learning style: "Show me and
I'll understand." Visual learners benefit from diagrams, charts,
pictures, films, and written directions.
Whiteboards are a favorite of the visual learner.
Most computers have operating systems that enable the
student to make diagrams and graphs.
With the use of your cell phone or other device a student can
take a picture and then email it to themselves for later review.
Watch youtube videos to see how things are done. Or even
watch the videos of many different people teaching
something so that you can visualize it in many different ways.
10. Bodily-Kinesthetic
Bodily kinesthetic
learning styles, or
intelligence, refer to
a person's ability to
process information
through the hand
and body
movement, control,
and expression.
11. How to be a Bodily-Kinesthetic
learner.
Use physical objects as much as
possible. Physically touch objects as
you learn about what they do.
Flashcards can help you memorize
information because you can touch
and move them around.
Use an athletic game to learn and
score points as you go.
Find an interactive video game to
learn information.
12. Aural- Musical
As a musical/ aural
leaner, you notice
the music playing
in the background
of movies, TV shows
and other media.
You have a good
sense of pitch and
rhythm.
13. How to be a Musical learner.
Use sound recordings to provide a background
and help you get into visualizations. For example,
use a recording of an aircraft engine running
normally, playing loudly via a headset, to practice
flight procedures. Use a recording of the sound of
wind and water when practicing sailing routines.
The internet is full of sound bytes and clips to help
you make mnemonics.
Keep music that either gets you pumped up for a
project or calms you down before a test on your
mp3 player.
14. Interpersonal
You prefer to learn in
groups or with other
people.
You typically prefer
learning in groups or
classes, or you like to spend
much one-on-one time
with a teacher or an
instructor. You heighten
your learning by bouncing
your thoughts off other
people and listening to
how they respond. You
prefer to work through
issues, ideas and problems
with a group.
15. How to be an Interpersonal
learner.
Utilize chat groups or other areas on the
web where students can bounce ideas
off each other.
Aim to work with others as often as
possible/attend study groups.
16. Intrapersonal
You prefer to work
alone and use self-study.
You can
concentrate well,
focusing your
thoughts and
feelings on your
current topic.
You like to make
plans and set goals.
17. How to be an Intrapersonal
learner.
Keep a log or journal. Input info into your
laptop or iPad to keep your notes.
Always have your study material (or iPad,
laptop, etc) nearby for when you want to
be alone and study.
Many novelists are intrapersonal learners
and like to work on their own and
formulate their own ideas.
