Q2
I could use this information ti inform my learning design as I would know how I learn best aswell as knowing that there are so many differnt learning styles and ways in which you can teach a class of students in so many differnt ways and styles.
I would also know my strenghts and weaknesses (areas to work on) therefore being able to cater for a wider group of students/learners.

Q3
The potential to use ITC to support multiple intelligences would be a great tool and advantage as the students would be able to acheive the same conclusion/result by using a variety of external resourses that compliment their own learning style and that way all students are able to achive the end result in their own way.

Activity 1

My Learning styles:
  • A moderate Active learner
  • A moderate Sensing learner
  • A strong Visual learner
  • A strong Sequential learner
Q1
With my differnet learnig stlyles, the learning experiences that would suit me best are:
  • group work
  • discussions or problems solving activities
  • connecting information to the real world
  • using diagrams, charts, photographs, sketches and other visual representations
  • placing information inti steps and in order
Q2
In a traditional classroom as a mentor you would support all the learning styles each lesson by providing students a variety tasks that cover a variety of learning styles, for eg the one lesson could be planned a number of differnt ways and children could be placed into groups of similar learning styles. Allow the students to support each other with their own strenghts.

Q3
With my current knowledge of ICT (which is limited) my design and digital pedagogy support the learners better as I would like it to enhance what students learn, how they learn, and when and where their learning takes place.

Q4
The profileing questions I would be asking about my learners
would be:
  • Information about their family and family life and background information
  • Learners interest, likes and dislikes
  • Learners strengths and weaknesses
  • Past knowledge (previous classes and schools)
  • Learning delays
this would help ensure I have catered for everyones preferences.

Q5
ICT supports different learning styles by allowing a variety of instruments which all learners can access,
eg:
  • computers
  • internet
  • I pad
  • interactive white board cameras
  • video cameras etc
All of these will assist and support differents learning styles

Q6
I feel the my results are fairly accurate for my learning styles
