Students who are in career education may be affected by learning challenges, even as adult learners. We must acknowledge that student may have learning challenges, but they may also have learning preferences that they use to be successful learners. 

Learning styles are important in development of curricula and learning materials for the success of the student

I learned that learning preferences and challenges both play a role in how a student learns.  Getting to know your students and tailoring the learning environment to address both will lead to a successful outcome.  

Learning challenges are obstacles that require support, strategies, or accommodations. Learning preferences are choices or styles, not limitations.

Awesome learning module, I learn that occasionally i will gravitate to my learning preferences in delivering course material in teaching. I need to remember that what works for me might not work for other and think of a more holistic approach by bringing in other ways to deliver material ( auditory, visuals, etc.) Im interested in using both rubrics and portfolios in my assessments to get a fuller picture of a students success and better opportunity to portray what they've learned from the class. 

I learned that every student has different learning preferences and challenges based on their background, experiences, and individual needs. Some might learn best through visuals or hands-on activities, while others prefer reading or discussion. Understanding these differences helps create a more inclusive environment where everyone has a fair chance to succeed. I plan to apply this by being flexible in my approach, offering multiple ways to engage with material, and taking the time to recognize when someone might need extra support or a different learning method.

Learning challenges refer to informational processing differences while learning preferences refer to preferred styles in learning

Incorporating different methods of learning is important because each student has a unique learning style. 

It is important to understand that each student may have a different way they will integrate the information being delivered best into their memory for effective recall. Interacting with the students and learning their desired delivery system can allow the instructor to incorporate multiple methods into the class to allow each student the opportunity to learn the most they can.

Ensuring the course material has different learning style to encourage inclusiveness is crucial.

Learning preferences and incorporating a variety of teaching styles can help students be successful

Learning preferences can support learning

Everyone has different learning styles and limitations, and we should adapt to this for the best outcomes for our students. 

A variety of styles

Understanding that students learn differently, allows the instructor to use different modes to reach the student and help them retain the information.   The instructor then can provide more efficient individualized support if needed. 

I think it is great to consider the learning preferences of students. It is a good idea to have a variety of study materials available for students and they can pick which item would work best for them. This may alleviate some of the learning challenges they may have. 

Using a variety of styles to present information captures more of the class. Being mindful as the instructor to patterns in student performance and helping them cultivate learning is part of the job.

It is extremely important to incorporate multiple methods of instructions and of knowledge absorption for the students, as well as multiple ways for them to excel 

Designing evaluation tools that include both the what and why of learning criteria.  It can be challenging to have the students engage in building a portfolio of what they have learned and not what they are expected to say.

Challenging students can help them grow and gain confidence.
