Teaching Students with Nontraditional Learning Styles From the December 2001 Education newsletter. Besides understanding a student's personality, teachers also need to understand a student's preferred style of learning. Many students, particularly those with learning disabilities, learn in nontraditional ways, such as through acting, drawing, or movement. Sally Smith, founder and director of The Lab School in Washington, D.C., says the secret to discovering a student's learning style is to vary teaching methods and observe how students respond. Teachers could plan a lesson using pictures or have students touch objects as an alternative to more traditional teaching methods. "Use all the senses and see which students come alive during each activity," says Ms. Smith. Ms. Smith, who also directs the Master's Degree Program in Special Education: Learning Disabilities at American University, says that teachers can accommodate a variety of learning styles in a single classroom by dividing children into groups for assignments and activities and having each group complete a task in the assignment. For example, a geography project designed to teach students about the world's continents could find some students coloring the map, some listening to languages spoken in the countries on each continent, and some walking across the map to learn where each continent is located.

Comparing Student Learning Styles in an Online Distance Learning Class and an Equivalent On-Campus Class by David P. Diaz and Ryan B. Cartnal Cuesta Community College Bibliographical reference: Abstract Educators have, for many years, noticed that some students prefer certain methods of learning more than others. These traits, referred to as learning styles , form a student's unique learning preference and aid teachers in the planning of small-group and individualized instruction. If optimal student learning is dependent on learning styles, and these styles vary between distance and equivalent on-campus students, then faculty should be aware of these differences and alter their preparation and instructional methods accordingly. Correlational analysis revealed that on-campus students displayed collaborative tendencies that were positively related to their needs to be competitive and to be good class citizens. Thus, on-campus students appeared to favor collaborative styles to the extent that it helped them to obtain the rewards of the class. In contrast, online students were willing and able to embrace collaborative teaching styles if the instructor made it clear that this was expected, and gave them form and guidance for meeting this expectation. Online students appeared to be driven more by intrinsic motives and clearly not by the reward structure of the class. Faculty who are putting a traditional course online, should consider administering a student learning style inventory to both their distance and traditional students. Knowledge of student learning preferences can aid faculty in class preparation, designing class delivery methods, choosing appropriate technologies, and developing sensitivity to differing student learning preferences within the distance education environment.

Addressing Diverse Learning Styles Through the Use of Multimedia Susan M. Montgomery University of Michigan Abstract: Rationale One of the challenges in teaching engineering, or any other discipline, for that matter, is trying to meet the needs of a variety of students. This is a particular challenge in large classes, where the typical teaching mode is heavily dependent on lectures (this need not, of course be the case, but that's another paper...). One way to reach students individually is through the use of educational software. This paper examines the role of educational software, and in particular multimedia-bases software, in meeting the needs of various learners. Learning Styles A survey of learning styles was conducted in a sophomore-level introductory chemical engineering class with an enrollment of 143 students. Early in the semester one class session was devoted to learning styles. Students used an assessment tool to determine their learning styles, and then we discussed the characteristics of each learning style. A review of learning style inventories was performed in preparation for the class session. Kolb's Learning Style Inventory [1-3], the Myers-Briggs inventory [4-5], and Soloman's Inventory of Learning Styles [6] were compared and tested with a sample of eight students. They found the questions in the Kolb inventory to be too laden with jargon and hard to answer. The Myers-Briggs inventory's focus on personality rather than learning style diminished it's effectiveness for our purposes. Soloman's inventory consisted of 28 simple questions that the students found very easy to answer. Their responses to these questions helped to classify their learning style along four dimensions (processing, perception, input and understanding), described in Table 1.

Fiedler, an educator at Northeastern Illinois University, Chicago, teaches graduate students pursuing M.A. degrees in education for gifted students. She believes educators need to provide alternative teaching strategies for adult learners and alternative methods for students to document their learning. The alternative teaching strategies and alternative methods for learning documentation are based on students’ learning styles. Greater knowledge of students’ learning styles has developed over the last several years, giving both educators and students a step up from the old lecture-only methods primarily used in higher education. Today the classroom is alive with the excitement of bodily/kinesthetic learning alongside the more traditional logical/mathematical learning. Below are descriptions of the different learning styles and how educators can incorporate the different styles into their instructional strategies.

People learn in a variety of ways. For example, visual learners and verbal learners will need graphic illustrations and lots of text respectively to understand concepts and relationships (Kilby 1997). A learning style inventory can help students understand their learning styles. You could organise a learning style activity to help students get to know each other and give them practice using online communication tools. A learning style inventory (David Kolb's) can be seen at a University of Vermont Plant and Soil Science web page.
