The second unit of this course will examine different learning styles.  The purpose is not to force a learning style on you, but rather to help you understand how it is you learn and process information.  This unit's goal is to help you become a better learner by helping you develop an understanding of yourself so that you can thrive in any situation.

 

By the end of this ten-to-twelve day unit, you should be able to answer the following essential questions completely and confidently.

 

Why is it important to understand your personal learning style?

How do I learn best?

How does my personality and temperament affect my learning style?

How can a person's likes and dislikes affect their learning style?

How should you respond to someone (teacher, boss, coworker, etc.) with a personality different than your own?

How does/will your learning style affect your success in the classroom and in life?
