Diverse Learning Strategies

How can I use my preferred learning style to my advantage at school (especially in subjects I find challenging)?

Diversity was tragically scarce in my hometown. The unspoken common goal, seemingly, was to be the exact same as all the other students with regard to clothes, boots, and even designer lunch boxes. Many students acted, dressed, and even spoke differently at home, meaning diversity in the students existed, but was not accepted. Diversity carries little to no meaning without inclusivity. However, inclusivity brings meaning to diversity by ensuring a positive and consequently productive learning environment. I believe a diverse and inclusive learning environment is essential to a productive work environment because diverse ideas bring innovation. Repetitive contributions are hardly helpful when the information shared is neither new nor different

The four effective practices are interdependent to one another. These concepts are the key points that provide a solution in helping English learners become fluent English speakers and be able to understand difficult lessons and high standards. The first strategy the article points out is Access, and it is used more frequently than the others. Echevarria and colleagues (2015) demonstrate that when teachers use differentiated teaching strategies, it will allow students to understand the concepts being taught more easily. For example, using multimedia to provide visual learning along with listening to the teacher can help with learning,

Students have their own best way in effectively learning the lesson. With the diversity of students, the problem is each student has a preferred learning style. It becomes undeniably one of the reasons that make it difficult to achieve the best expected outcome out of teachers’ effort. However, teachers try to incorporate various teaching techniques to make every learning opportunity become productive, meaningful, and relevant for the learners.

The most memorable time when I was impacted educationally by diversity would be my freshman year in High School. I had gone to a private Christian school from Kindergarten through 8th grade. My mom thought that it would be a great idea to send me to public school for my freshman year. Mind you, I lived in Dallas, TX at the time and public school is quite different than private school there. I was not only the minority in school, but I was one of five Caucasian kids in the entire school. I was made fun of for being white, coming from private school, and for being smart. Just like the article, Helping Diverse Learners Succeed, I had to learn about my new environment. I didn’t understand why the kids were mean to me and why

It can be argued that the more modalities employed and presented to students, the greater their chance for successful learning becomes. As educators, if we appeal to all strategies of learning, we are more likely to enhance the learning of everyone in our target audience. This may be challenging as we ourselves tend to flock to a particular learning style, and in turn, tend to teach the same way. It also may be a challenge to address each individuals learning style, as it may be difficult, or even impossible to know each and every one of their learning preferences. However, the first step in overcoming that challenge is to be well versed in our own learning preferences. If we are well versed in our own

According to Chen and Yang (2017), there is more student participation in the classroom if the teacher uses a culturally responsive teaching strategy. This is important because if the students participate in the class the teacher will be able to see if the students understand the material and of their teaching strategy is effective. Ladson- Billings explained that, Culturally Responsive Teaching recognizes the importance

In beginning this class entitled Diverse Learners, I thought to myself that it would be a good opportunity to learn about teaching in an inclusive classroom to the myriad of students which will enter its walls. In essence that is what teaching is all about, creating an environment in which all students can learn to the best of their ability no matter what that ability is.

Throughout twelve years working with young children I have come across with children with different needs, culture, social economic and different family structure. Each child is unique and so fore they must be treated as unique individuals. Each lesson plan should be written considering each child needs, social economic, or family structure. My plan to create a curriculum that fits and benefits all children that I will be serving is to first of all, consider each child individual needs then their families needs.

Please describe how you would benefit from and add to a diverse learning environment in and outside of the classroom. Write answer in 250 words or less. (*Required)

There are several ways a teacher can teach appropriate strategies in the classroom. The teacher will recognize student’s bias and values that reflect on how the influence and expectation of behavior of interaction with all students and get a view of what learning will look like. The teacher goals are to create an environment that form an appropriate environment for each student by creating a safe net where they can gain knowledge about their own cultural through communication and learning styles. Books are displayed on the theme to promote diversity. The teacher should always model the behavior she expect from all students.

Pam: What is Culturally Responsive Teaching? Culturally responsive teaching is an educational theory that emphasizes the critical role that culture plays in the learning process. Below introduces this important and innovative pedagogical theory that is changing classroom curriculums and teaching styles.

The physical environment, materials, and resources was an area that required some help. Material that promote the children’s culture and ethnic environment is defiantly a weak area in the program. A suggestion to improve the environment with diverse materials would be puzzles, dolls and musical instruments in a variety of cultural diverse cultures. The books and videos are very divers and do meet the children’s cultural and ethnic needs. The food provided by the school district is diverse they tend to focus on providing healthy choices for the children.

In general, learning often relies on a learner's sight to look at pictures or a learner's hearing to listen to what the teacher is saying and repeating the coming information. Multisensory teaching isn't just limited to these two skills of reading and listening. Instead, it engages the learners with the material in more than one way. In almost every time of multi sensory teaching, all senses (taste, smell, touch, sight, hearing and movement) of the learner will be used. The multisensory method of teaching is effective for all students, though it was used
