Transfer is a core concept in learning and relates to
both process and outcome.
It helps us learn by facilitating the storage,
processing, remembering, and retrieving of
information
Activist: Enjoy new experiences with enthusiasm and an open mind. They are great at thinking of new ideas and leading people.
Theorist: These learners like to understand the theory behind the actions.
Methodical, rational and analytical. Usually perfectionists who are good at remaining objective. They need a clear objective and work best with structure.
Pragmatist: These people need to be able to see how to put the learning into practice in the real world. Practical and enjoy trying new things. Need to recognise obvious benefits to be happy doing something and do not enjoy theory.
Reflector: These people learn by observing and thinking about what happened. Prefer to observe and process information before drawing conclusions and offering an opinion. They need to work thoroughly and at their own pace.
Extraversion - Act first, think/reflect later,interaction with the outside world, Usually open to and motivated by outside world of people and things
