LEARNING STYLES

• Learning was defined as a change in beliefs,


attitudes, or behaviors due to experiences.

• As students go through the experience of


being asked, they gain more insights about
topics and develop their own capacities to
reason and respond.
According to Kolb and Kolb (2005), learning style
describes individual differences in approaches to
or ways of learning.

A person’s learning style is a biologically and


developmentally imposed set of personal
characteristics that make the same teaching
method effective for some and ineffective for
others.

of perceiving situations and
processing information, namely:

and process it refl ectively. They
learn well by listening to and
sharing with others while
integrating others’ ideas with their
own experiences. They often have
a difficulty with traditional
teaching approaches.
Analytic learners: They perceive
information abstractly and
process it refl ectively. They
prefer sequential thinking, require
details, and value what experts
have to offer. They do well in
traditional classrooms.
Common sense learners: They
process information abstractly
and actively. They enjoy practical
and hands-on learning. They often
fi nd school frustrating because
they do not see an immediate use
for learning.

concretely and process it
actively. They prefer hands-on
learning and get excited with
new concepts and ideas. They
like taking risks. Activities
that are tedious and
sequential frustrate them.
• ACTIVE LEARNING refers to dynamic
teaching and learning, which engages
learners as active participants in the
teaching-learning process.
• Teacher and students learn by doing,
performing, and reflecting on insights gained
from specific activities such as fun games,
simulations, role play, introspection, and the
