All of us do not learn in the same way. Our personality, our way of thinking, our preferences for pictures, sounds or actions determine our learning style. We can become efficient learners if we understand our way of learning, evaluate our own strengths and weaknesses, learn from the past experience to plan for the present and future and continuously try to become better learners with each experience of learning. Teachers do have their own preference for specific learning styles, and that influences their teaching styles. If they want to make their teaching more effective, they need to understand their students' learning styles and adapt their teaching strategies accordingly.

© Ranganayaki Srinivas 2004   How do Students Learn? At this point in the term, many professors perceive a too great a sense of routine displayed in their classroom, and are seeking energize their teaching. But where do we start? Perhaps some research published several years ago by D.G. Treichler*, which found that students learn: 10% of what they read; 20% of what they hear; 30% of what they see; 50% of what they both see and hear; 70% of what they discuss with people whose opinions they value; 80% of what they personally experience; and 90% of what they teach to other people. The implication of these findings are compelling, especially for those who rely too much on lecture as their primary tool of instruction: Lecture less; Use more audio-visual aids, including computer-generate graphics, when lecture is necessary; Provide frequent opportunities for students to solve problems and discuss issues in small groups, where they will feel less inhibited; Integrate personal reflections on course issues into your curriculum, through journalizing assignments and essay questions on examinations; Provide opportunities for students to teach each other, by encouraging the formation of study groups, and more presentations, especially the less-threatening panel discussions, role playing, and debate formats. Your integration of these approaches into your teaching will not only insure better retention of the course material, but make your role more interesting and rewarding.
