LEARNING: Styles, Strategies & Outcomes
SPRING, 2021

Learning Styles are the preferred ways by which people learn. Common learning styles include visual, auditory, and tactile (hands-on).

Learning Styles refer to an individual's preferred manner of processing material, or characteristic style of acquiring and using information when learning.

According to the Dr. Richard Felder & Dr. Linda Silverman learning style model, "students preferentially take in and process information in different ways: by seeing and hearing, reflecting and acting, reasoning logically and intuitively, analyzing and visualizing, steadily and in fits and starts".
