Tutor Training Session: Learning Styles, Modalities and The Non-Traditional Learner  (back)
 
Description:
Who are Non-Traditional Learners –and how do their backgrounds and learning goals vary? This session identifies learning modalities and explores teaching techniques suited to each of them. After brainstorming instructional activities for various learning styles, we develop a clearer idea about how our own learning styles affect our teaching and how we can be more responsive to the needs of our learner.

Competency: Identify learning modalities and brainstorm activities that effectively address the learning styles of Non-Traditional Learners.

• Knowledge: Understand that the non-traditional learner is different and has life experiences to draw from in learning and people learn differently
• Skill: Ability to create and use appropriate materials to teach
• Ability: Assess whether methods and materials used help the learner retain information
