By completing the Felder and solomon learning style inventory, the results show that I am balanced between Active and Reflective learning styles. I do sometimes find myself jumping into things early and then finding out that it is not what I was/am suppose to do. But then I can spend too much time reflecting and deciding what to do that I never get anything completed!!! Sensing or Intuitive learner?? Definitely sensing - I like learning facts, try to solve problems using established methods or rules and do not like complications or surprises. Visual or verbal? the results show that my preference is towards visual learning. However, I think I learn more if information is presented both visually and verbally. Lastly, I have a preference towards learning sequentialy rather than globally. That is, I tend to gain undertanding by following sequential logical steps rather than jumping around a topic and then putting it all together.
Felder and Solomon describe each learning style and provide some classroom strategies that are extremely helpful for Learning Managers to implement and understand the learning needs of our learners in the 21st century classroom.
