MODULE
THIRTEEN
LEARNER
CHARACTERISTICS
The unit thirteen’ topic was about the preferentiality of the students
to learn. (1)The learning
styles that I revised were: visual, auditory, reflective,
impulsive, analytic and autonomous. Each person has a technique to self-discover
the information and (2)interact with other people. When there
is no relation with the learning style and the class, students will get
discouraged about the course, some may also fell bored and get inactive in
class. As teachers we should (3)identify the
ways of learning of our students, their necessities to learn in order to
prepare the best activities for them. Teacher can set the best techniques for
them that can improve the speed and quality of their learning. Knowing your
learning style helps you to develop learning strategies to be independent, the
ones mentioned in the book are: to ask the teacher to give the students (4)feedback , it helps to use better the
language. Another, it is to create a way to (5)memorize
the new words that appears in the unit or lesson. For example: for one student
could be better to make associations between items in a list and then placing
an image with each connection to remember but for others it is better to
associate familiar locations. The last one I am going to remark is (6)paraphrasing which is a technique we
use to experiment with the language, students use their own words to convey a
message. Furthermore, teacher not only have to based their lesson plan in the
learning styles but also it is important to know the (7)maturity
of the students, and it doesn’t have to do with the age, however, age is
another factor which influences students ‘learning. For example: for adults it
is easy for them to learn things in (8)abstract way,
but for children it is better to experience the things. As a conclusion, I can
say that as teachers we have the great responsibility to choose the best for
our students and we could do that just with knowing them.
