Instruction approaches for kinesthetic learners

Hi Juan - Thanks for your post to the forum. I'm sure that when you have a class full of kinesthetic learners they would have a tendancy to just "go for it"! Having the rubric on hand, they will be aware of what they are being graded on and must therefore be able to document. Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career! Susan

Knowing the learning styles of your students

Hi Angela- Thanks for your post to the forum. You're correct, if you make a concerted effort to teach to all the learning styles you will definitely find that you do not need to "re-teach" as often. Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career! Susan

Knowing the learning styles of your students

HI Wardell- As probably the most un-creative person ever,this is a challenging question! The best suggestion I can come up with is to ask those students if they can come up with works/pieces done in different mediums that can then be adapted to the digital mode.Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career.
