Take that extra step

Everyone has a different style of learning. Some learn visually, while others learn best when they listen. There are also those who learn by doing.

Learners should take time to discover their learning style. There are activities available through various media that enable learners to determine their learning style. By determining the styles that suit them, learners can spend more time using those styles. In return, they can learn faster and gain better understanding about the topics that they are working on.

Instructors and course designers should also take time to analyze their target learners. Through conducting learner analysis, designers and instructors will be able to develop courses that would provide learners the best learning experience. By tailoring the course to meet the learners’ profile, there would be a greater possibility of having higher grades, faster learning pace, and positive feedback.

Analyzing learning styles can be an added step to the learning process; however, always keep in mind that it is better to add that extra step than have a course that doesn’t work.
