Many of us would really have to push on to determine which learning style suits them exactly. Although each of us can answer basic questions such as whether their picture speaks more than words or texts are the ones who enable them are well organized thoughts, or even need to hear what you have to learn how to make the information was permanently adopted. Often happens to combine two different types of learning to get the most from both. Learning styles, the survey based on David Kolb on experiential learning cycle, they say that people, on this basis, can be divided into: the activists, thinkers (reflectors), theorists and pragmatists. This model is based on a four-step learning process in which:
- immediate and concrete experiences become the basis for…
- … observation and opinion, which is distilled in…
- … abstract concepts that enable connectivity with existing and which may be…
- … actively tested, producing a new experience.
Simply, the first stage of learning is gaining concrete experience, the second is observation of others present and reflect on this experience, the third linking these experiences with existing knowledge at our disposal, while the fourth phase of implementation of these experiences and acquiring new ones.
