As explained in the article “The Case for Working with Your Hands” by Matthew B. Crawford, we don’t only have regular classes in school, but also shop classes that have an artificial learning environment where we learn through kinesthetic learning. We have those classes because there are jobs in the world that are hands on. For instance, when something goes wrong with a car people don’t just go out and buy a new one. They take the car to an auto-mechanic
Kinesthetic learning can be classified as trial and error learning; learning by performing the task. Personally, it is not until I perform the task that I gain the confidence within myself that I have actually believe that I understand. The second style is Aural, which is to listen, discuss, talk, and question. This relates to me because I want to know every piece of information that is available to me, and I want to question every aspect that I do not
An infamously lifelong agnostic, he discovered something. The man looked into the sky that morning. He watched the enchanting metamorphosis of the plethora of colors. It started with a dark navy blue. The first rays of rosy-cheeked Dawn combined with it to create a splendid magenta and then went into a phase of marigold.
The best way for a kinaesthetic learner is to take information by doing activities and that involves touching, feeling, holding and doing practical work. Auditory Auditory learning is a style which a person learns by listening. It is mainly listening to someone talk
I have never been able to watch my lectures and repeat them if for some reason I missed key information. Prior to this program, I have taken an online course and enjoyed it, but this course is a little different because of the video streams and other resources available. I absolute love the fact that audio streams are provided because I can put my ear plugs in, and listen to the lecture over and over again. I am the type of learner who needs to watch the lectures
This will also become useful when coming to write coursework plans as I will already have a lot of the information at hand and won’t be having to try and remember information from lectures, instead I will have it all written down in a way that I understand and is useful to me. This is also useful as anything that I have taken away from a lecture I can read into more in-depth at home or research anything that I didn’t understand and re-write in a way that I will understand for future reference. This also backs up my read/write learning style. I can use diagrams and pictures where applicable to demonstrate/understand information, not study or read for long periods of time, use study material that uses all my sense i.e. videos, diagrams, field visits, lab work, speaking to lecturers about coursework with my first draft and seeing all feedback as being positive. This will help me to learn by not just sitting and reading in lots of information, it is a much more practical way of learning which links back into my kinesthetic learning preference and backs up the learning style theory of a kinesthetic learner (VARK, 2015).
Dr. Jane Vella devoted her life to creating and developing the Dialogue Education ™ approach to adult education. Dr. Vella received her understanding on the adult learning principles from her more than 50 years experience as an educator in many countries in Africa, Asia and the Americas. She used the principle Dialogue Education in her doctoral research at the University of Massachusetts and wrote several popular books on this subject. She founded Global Learning Partners (GLP) to develop a network of practitioners of Dialogue Education approach (Core Group 2012). The Learning to Listen, Learning to Teach book is written about principles and practical steps of the Dialogue Education approach.
(Eye - sight, Ears – sound, etc) 2) Students should be able to take an object in their environment and describe it using relevant senses. ( Pencil: Sight – Bright orange, thin like a stick; Touch – hard, smooth but brittle lead tips) 3) Students should grasp a better understanding for the importance of using sensory detail in order to better convey experiences and objects to their readers. Evidence of Learning: How will you know if your students understand your lesson? I will establish evidence of learning through two methods. First when presenting the lesson, I will ask students to identify on their own bodies which body part matches with which sense.
If no one is paying attention, there is no way a person can be educated. What is being provided should result in mastery in that subject, not zone out the audience
Tyne’s article starts out broad and then narrows in on each learning style. Tyne gives examples of the strengths and weaknesses of people with each of the three learning styles and encourages parents to identify their child’s learning style. LSSU is half as long as Tyne’s article. “Kinaesthetic, Auditory, and Visual Learning Styles for Children” is written in a more persuasive manner. Opposed to “What Learning Style Does Your Student Use?” which is more expository article.
Kinesiology is the study of body movement and physical therapy lies in a career that relates to aiding many people with injuries, diseases, or deformity. Rather than using drugs or surgery, physical methods such as massages, heat treatments, or exercise can rehabilitate the people to become the best they could ever be. Having the ability to help people physically and mentally has influenced my choice to enter the field of sport medicine. The soul purpose of a physical therapist is to help people gain their ability to move, decrease the amount of pain, and to be able to have complete function of their body.
I am applying to your PhD in Kinesiology program with a focus on building upon relevant previous experience and education and preparing me towards my career. As a result of my enduring interest in sports, I studied Anthropology of Sports at the University. During my internship at the University of Calgary through the Student for Development Program (SFD), I had the opportunity to learn about the possibility and opportunity of studying sports at the University. Unfortunately, in my native country, there is generally a scarcity of experts in this area and specifically a negligible number of women in this field, and explains why I hope to gain an in-depth knowledge and understanding of how sports can be applied to improve the general wellbeing (physical and mental) of participants and benefit to society. Given this opportunity, I hope to become a positive influence on women to pursue their dream in this area of study and also to fill in the gap in this field.
It is more helpful than just listening to teacher speaking
Differentiation, with respect to instruction, means tailoring it to meet individual needs of the students. Teachers can differentiate content, process, products, or the learning environment, the use of ongoing assessment and flexible grouping makes this a successful approach to instruction. Teachers differentiate the four classroom elements based on student readiness, interest, or learning profile. (Tomlinson 2000). Differentiated instruction can be known as an organizing framework in teaching and learning which calls for a major restructuring in the classroom and syllabus, if done in the proper way, its benefits will transgress the costs.
