Learning Styles:
Everyone has a different way of learning. It is important to recognise the core styles of learning in order to deliver effective training:
- Didactic
- The art of education through reading and the memorising of facts
- Collaborative
- Working together, especially in joint intellectual efforts
- Spatial
- Learning through the use of images, colours, maps and other visual tools
- Cognitive
- Learning by being aware of our own thought processes
- Kinaesthetic
- The art of learning through doing
Teaching Methods:
Employing a variety of teaching methods using multimedia allows us to accomodate many learning styles:
- Information: Read an illustrated explanation of how to do it
- Demonstration: Watch it being done for you
- Interactive: Have a go at it yourself
- Assessment: See how well you understood it
- Peer to Peer: Share knowledge in the Chat Room and sit in Collaborative Courses
