WHAT WERE MY CHALLENGES?
After creating my Hotmail account I processed to add my contacts to my contact list. Here my challenges began. For some reason, I just could not find where my contacts were. I searched every tab in my Hotmail account, but I just couldn't find it. Then my computer crashed. I was frustrated. Now, I had to use my cellular phone which made it harder to see the features. Still I wasn't able to find my contacts. So, I called my cousin and asked her to direction on how to find my contact list. With her aid, I found my contact list and completed the assignment.
WHAT DID I LEARN ?
This week we learnt:
1. Categories of Media
Media is the main means of mass communication. There are 6 categories of media.
- visual
- audio
- written
- video
- people
- tactile ( manipulative)
2. Types of Learners
LEARNING IS A PERMANENT CHANGE IN BEHAVIOUR IN THE ACQUISITION OF KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS AND ATTITUDES AS INDIVIDUALS CONSTRUCT MEANING OF THE ENVIRONMENT FROM DIFFERENT EXPERIENCES.
There are three main types of learners
- Visual Learners- people who prefer to see information and visualize the relationships between ideas.
- Auditory Learners- people who prefer to hear information rather than reading or seeing
- Kinesthetic Learners- these are hands-on learners. They learn best by doing.
3. Types of Learning Styles
Constructivist- Learning theory found in psychology which explains how people might acquire knowledge and learn. It suggests that humans construct knowledge and meaning from their experiences.
Cognitivist- Learning theory that explains thinking and differing mental processes and how they are influenced by internal and external factors in order to produce learning in individuals.
Behaviourist- Learning theory that only focuses on objectively observable behaviours and discounter any independent activities of the mind. It is nothing more than the acquisition of new behavior based on environmental conditions according to behavior theorists.
With this newly acquired knowledge, I will now be able to create lessons to reach each learner in my class. Knowing how to incooperate different learning styles to ensure maximum learning, will make for more effective teaching.
THANKS FOR VIEWING!!!
REMEMBER TO RETURN TO MY QUEENDOM!!!
