1. What are Learning Styles? – The different ways we learn as individuals

Types of Learning Styles:

1. Visual/Spatial - You prefer using pictures/images, and spatial understanding. – See it

2. Auditory - You prefer using sound and music. – Hear it

3. Physical/Tactile/Kinesthetic - You prefer using your body, hands and sense of touch. – Do it

4. Verbal - You prefer using words, both in speech and/or writing. – Say it or Write it

5. Logical - You prefer using logic/reasoning and systems. – Math, Science, Problem solving, Using formulas

6. Social - You prefer to learn in groups or with other people.

7. Solitary - You prefer to work alone and use self-study 2. What are Multiple Intelligences? – different kinds of minds learn in different ways (students possess different kinds of minds and therefore learn, remember, perform, and understand in different ways)

Types of Multiple Intelligences:

1. Visual/Spatial Intelligence (images, pictures, art)

2. Verbal/Linguistic Intelligence (speaking, writing)

3. Logical/Mathematical Intelligence (math & science)

4. Bodily/Kinesthetic Intelligence (moving around, active)

5. Musical/Rhythmic Intelligence (sounds & music)

6. Interpersonal Intelligence (Groups)

7. Intrapersonal Intelligence (Individual)

8. Naturalist Intelligence - this involves having an affinity with the natural world that enables people to recognize and develop a detailed understanding of animals, plants, and other natural phenomena (outdoors, hiking, camping) 3. What is Metacognition? – Thinking about thinking; awareness or analysis of one's own learning or thinking processes (PAYING ATTENTION, FOCUSING, BEING PRESENT OR MINDFUL):

Metacognitive Skills:

1. Goal Setting – knowing what you want to know & planning how to get the information

2. Metamemory – Knowing how to access & use your memory 3. Metacomprehension – Knowing how to interpret what you are learning to increase understanding

4. Self-regulation – Knowing how to change your learning style to increase understanding

5. Assessment & Evaluation – testing what you know or what you have learned, identifying our strengths AND weaknesses

6. Reflection – thinking about what you have learned & internalizing it

7. Self-actualization - Eventually, you begin to use the process without even being aware that you are doing so.

4. What are Learning Strategies or Skills? – activities & tools we use to help us learn

Learning Strategies:

1. Cornell Notes (organizing info. for filing in your brain)

2. T3Cs summaries (metacomprehension) 3. QAR, Citing your sources

4. Close Reading, Review (Mastery)

5. Journal Responses (Reflection)

Write a T3Cs Paragraph. Describe your learning style(s).
