Classroom Learning Styles & Interests
Above is a chart containing the information for learning styles of students in a 7th grade, Academic Advisory class, at East Fairmont Junior High. Each student answered questions that yielded a response that indicated visual, auditory, or kinesthetic learning preferences. Each student is listed by number.
From the chart, it is very easy to tell the preferred learning style is visual (16 of 17 students). From these results, teaching to meet students learning preferences is easy for this class; too bad every class doesn't always yield a majority style.
I also gave five students in AA an interest survey. Interest surveys are a great way to get to know your students, however, they are time consuming depending on how in depth you go. Also, unlike learning styles where there are only three, interests among students have a extremely wide range.
