Learning Styles

 

What are Learning Styles?

The term learning styles is  used to describe how learners gather, sift through, interpret, organize, come to conclusions about, and “store” information for further use.  


VARK is a popular learning styles inventory.  These styles included are sensory approaches:  visual, aural, verbal [reading/writing], and kinesthetic.  

Felder and Silverman’s Index of Learning Styles, is based on how learners process and organize information:  active-reflective, sensing-intuitive, verbal-visual, and sequential-global.

There are well over 70 different learning styles schemes (Coffield, 2004).

While there is no evidence linking learning style to instruction type, there is the idea that certain disciplines need to employ certain learning styles (VARK) to provide effective learning.

Scholarship of Teaching - The Concept, Practice, and Research

What is The Scholarship of Teaching?

The term “scholarship of teaching” was used by Boyer (1990) to express the view that the rigorous and systematic creation of knowledge about teaching and learning is a form of scholarship similar in importance to that of traditional academic research.

He tried to establish the principle that the activities associated with the scholarship of teaching (research: exploration, experimentation and dissemination of results) should be conducted by academics from all disciplines, not just those who work in the field of education.

Boyer argued that the work of university academics (professors) should be thought of as having four separate, yet overlapping, functions, which he called, the scholarships of discovery, integration, application and teaching. The first three may belong to a specific science.

International Journal for the Scholarship of Teaching & Learning

International Journal for the Scholarship of Teaching & Learning is an open, double-blind peer reviewed electronic journal published in May and November each year by the Center for Teaching Excellence at Georgia Southern University. The journal is an international forum for research and information about the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) and its applications in higher/tertiary education.
