Book Synopsis Multiculturalism and Learning Style by : Rita Dunn
Download or read book Multiculturalism and Learning Style written by Rita Dunn and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1998-08-20 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text synthesizes the research on the learning style characteristics of five culturally diverse groups: Native Americans, Hispanic Americans, African Americans, Asian Americans, and European Americans. Although each of these groups has distinguishing features and differs from other groups on some of the 22 elements that constitute learning style, there are broad within-group variations that preclude generalizations. Dunn and Griggs identify a multidimensional model of learning style, describe a comprehensive assessment instrument for identifying an individual's learning style, and provide a variety of educational interventions that accommodate diverse learning style preferences.

Book Synopsis The Contributing Factors of Cultural Learning Styles in the Development of a Multicultural Classroom by : Andrew Michael Stoltzman
Download or read book The Contributing Factors of Cultural Learning Styles in the Development of a Multicultural Classroom written by Andrew Michael Stoltzman and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My research and subsequent paper is a result of a noticeable learning gap in multi-cultural classrooms in the U. S. that primarily emphasize the learning styles of the American education system, but not the learning styles of other cultures represented in the classrooms. Student in our own ESL department at Century College often question how and why instructors present the material and tests. This led me to realize that there was probably something in the students' backgrounds that was causing them to question and resist the American teachers' ways of presenting their curriculum. I chose to investigate the learning styles of six cultures, including our own. I questioned and noted what my community college peers were saying, plus what I observed in my own classes, and I researched professional journals and books to learn more about the subject. I was amazed by the wide range of methods that are used to present information to students. In synthesizing the information that I gleaned from my research and my peers, I discovered many interesting things about the six cultures. Cooperative group work and being allowed to be in control of learning is important to Americans. However, I discovered that the Japanese students tend to value the process of finding an answer and they reject being singled out or standing out from the group, The Hmong have typically learned through storytelling and observation. Group process and consensus are important to the Mexicans, and the Ukrainians focus on memorization and system. Somalis tend to be poetic and involved in role playing. Because of the wide diversity in learning styles that are typically found in the Century College ESL classes, I created a unit plan for an intermediate ESL reading class. It incorporates aspects of these five cultural learning styles while guiding the students toward the American learning style which they will need to be familiar with once they enter other college classes. While the unit plan was developed to teach metaphors and similes, it is important for the reader to be aware that this kind of planning and teaching is definitely not limited to ESL and can be adapted to many other lessons and courses. Students in developmental reading, writing and mathematics would find this process very comforting and useful. However, before effective learning can happen in the classroom, teachers need to know and appreciate the different cultural learning styles that their second language learners bring with them to the American classrooms and be willing to meet them where they are.
Book Synopsis The Importance of Learning Styles by : Ronald R. Sims
Download or read book The Importance of Learning Styles written by Ronald R. Sims and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1995-05-23 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a timely review of learning style research. It examines those approaches that purport to promote effective learning. It affirms the need for instructors and trainers to recognize the importance of individual learning differences and to use methods that help create a learning climate which increases the potential learning for all students or trainees regardless of their preferred way of learning. The ability to understand and to teach to the various learning styles of students is essential to improving the effectiveness of college-level education.
