Adaptions of learning styles

Where is the learner’s preference? How does this affect how a presenter / trainer you need to adapt your style, how you present content and format of
the learning? Visual or verbal/words or auditory/hearing or physical? Amongst learners 35% mainly visual; 25% auditory; 40% mainly physical. 
What research do you need to do?

[Halina’s = average re visual; nil re verbal/words; very high re auditory; nearly high for physical]

35% mainly visual
  • Add pictures; diagrams; charts; videos
  • Make pictures / draw diagrams etc eg mind maps with
    symbols/words/colours
  • Run mental movies
  • Highlight text / words
  • Enlarge & add colour
25% auditory
  • Speaking, develop voice in all aspects
  • Hear an explanation
  • Tape something
  • Work with background of baroque music & play as
    background
  • Baroque last half of C17, Mozart = ethereal lifts onto
    higher plane. So Bach, Albinoni, Vivaldi, Teleman,
    Pachabel
  • Read aloud to self/ accent
  • Over emotional readings
40% mainly physical
  • Need to move
  • Writing down is crucial
  • Videos
  • 40 minutes breaks
  • Movies in head
  • Writing / drawing
  • Demonstrations
  • Hands on
  • Act out in head
  • Underlining / highlighting
  • Invest in a wide range of pens
  • Make a floor sizes mind map
  • Wriggle around
  • Post it notes for key points
  • Stick on paper and move around
Combination of audio / visual preference
  • Need written words
  • Write as go
  • Diagrams + words
  • Slogans / texts
  • Hand outs
  • Map what one knows
  • Need to discover what need to know
  • Ask if want written handouts
  • Go for Mind-maps
  • Need an overview
  • In books make headings / lists etc to get the overview
