because it affects the teaching methods used in their development. Ju An and Sook Yoo (2008) assert that understanding the link between learning style and critical thinking would facilitate the development of a curriculum that will help all styles of learners to develop their critical thinking skills. As a result, the following study will be
Good morning everyone, I am glad to meet you all in this morning. Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that some of you may be confused about that whether the education is important in this world. It is because some of you don’t even know the world would change by education. However, if someone asked me, in my opinion, I will answer yes, I totally agree that the education is important in this world. As the proverb says, “Education is the most powerful weapon in the world”. We always emphasise that the
Sociologist in modern society examined the important themes of how children are socialized in school and the effect of schooling on student’s life chances. Beginning in the 1960’s sociologist began to doubt that school could solve social problem and inequality. With rapid evolution in our education system, the term ‘Equality of Opportunity’ appeared. This theory signifies that everyone should be treated similarly without any form of prejudices or discrimination. However, some pertinent questions

argument. Matthew Sanders, a college professor at the University of Utah, writes in his online bio that he enjoys analyzing the ways of teaching and learning, which is exactly what Sanders does in his book. In Matthew L, Sanders’ book Becoming a Learner: Realizing the Opportunity of Education he argues that college is meant to develop a person into a greater being not to teach them job skills. To develop Sanders’ claim, learning is more than just retaining facts, he correctly aligns his rhetorical
health class, my teacher had us make a lesson plan explaining the topic individually assigned to the whole class. It wasn’t until after my presentation that I realized that I’m a very heavy tactile learner. As described in the essay “Knowing the Learner” by Gayle Gregory and Carolyn Chapman, a tactile learner learns best from handling materials, being involved, and writing or drawing. In my project, I put myself in the students shoes and made a lesson plan that I would have wanted presented to me. Therefore
How do I learn best? I’m an Auditory Learner. Which means that I learn way better if I listen to music or if I’m listening to my teacher tell exactly what to do. I do not work with other people well. Especially with horrific group projects, last year I worked with eight people for our trail project. I‘m used to working alone, so, I took my work home and finished exactly what only I, Karlee Olson could do. Which was my speech. I hate when I read the instructions I’m an okay reader, but I just do not
Needs of Latino Dual Language Learners in the Early Childhood Classroom Latinos in the United States as of 2013 is the largest growing minority group. One out of four students is Latino. The majority of Latino students are born in the US but do not speak English at their home (Lopez 2013). There are different types of language learners, monolingual learners and bilingual learners which include simultaneous, sequential and emergent learners. All language learners’ language development is impacted
Goals The goals that I have set myself stretch my limits definitely. The goals stretch my limits because they are things that I have needed to work on. The specific goals chosen are weaknesses that I would like to strengthen and do better on. These goals help me grow as a person most definetly. These are things that will help me succeed in my career and make my life a lot easier. Making sure that tasks are done at work and accomplishing them on time might mean a promotion, a gift, or even an increase
caution should be exercised in labelling a learner because labels lead to prejudices and may, ultimately, cause more harm than the original behavioural or emotional challenge. The secondary effect of prejudice is that other learners, teachers and parents may start to isolate and alienate the learner, for instance from sources of emotional support, and they may also avoid interaction with the learner. The result is that this attitude may inhibit the progress a learner may make in dealing with the specific
For this assignment I read the blog post “Why is History Important? An overview for the Reluctant Learner.” This blog post was written by C. Paris on May 15, 2014. According to the author of this article there are six main reasons why studying history is important.

There are areas of personal strengths and weaknesses when one is a self - motivated and engaged student. That will be expound upon as well.

Learner Scenario – Nia In my opinion, Nia should have tethered her Confluence a little bit. Where it can be a good thing to be confident in your own work, it never hurts to double check said work. Also, while I believe she was on the right track of stepping away and taking a break from the assignment once it was completed, she failed to review the work before posting it. Reviewing the work would have helped to ensure that her thoughts were clear, concise, and meets the instructors expectations. With

Gifted learners are a distinct group of students with special needs from the general population students. Gifted learners from migrant populations are no different. Migrant learners face continuous challenges that may interfere with academic success. Due to the unique differences that migrant learners face, they may need additional academic needs than mainstream learners. Many migrant learners may begin school late and leave prior to the end of the school year (McHatton, Zalaquett, & Cranson-Gingras
The central argument in the study is that learning is a social process where learners engage in joint endeavors with others to co-construct knowledge. In this sense, learners are the ‘active participants in the practices of social communities and constructing identities in relation to these communities’ (Wenger’s, 1998: 4). In language classrooms, the importance of interaction and communication between learners have been gradually recognized, and group work has been put into wider use. Despite a

Clara is a student in the class I help. She is an English Language Learner (ELL) student. When interacting with Clara I was able to realize that she is a very bright student, she is very motivated and has a goal in mind. One afternoon during homework help she opened up to me and talked about her family; she told me that they where from Guatemala. Her mom had her when she was very young and that because having a child is too much work the mom had to stop going to school. She also told me that her

By outlining the impact of an exceptional learner on the family; the social, economic and psychological consequences and coping strategies of raising an exceptional learner, this paper strives to prepare family members for raising an exceptional learner and to educate special educators
An Active Learner There are many things that many people wish to do nowadays. One of which is going back to school and earning a degree. To do so though requires yourself to be an active learner. To be an active learner you have to be able to motivate yourself for the work needed. You need to be able to want to learn and be willing to put in extra work to understand better. All of that doesn't work if you don't have direction. The classes you take and the work you do should always put you one step
