The old ways of teaching are giving way to multiple mobile connections, whereas there are many different ways to design your courses to suit different learning abilities in students.

 

Student inclusion is important and Multiple Mobile Communications (MMC's) place more interaction points into the subjects and make learning more continuous. Students have more access to information than found in traditional orders of curriculum. Instructors need to learn and grow with students.

I learned how important is to know the different type of intelligence to integrate that information in online learning.

 

Blended learning required all platforms and devices to giv ethe student the most effective outcome.

As an instructor who have very diverse students I should take time to study their learning style and adjust my instructions and assessments to cater for their diverse learning styles.  One size have never fit all when it comes to learning styles.  I have to be careful not to always design instructions and assessment that fits my learning style.

 

Understanding how students learn and trying to accommodate those differences when presenting material is the most important aspect of constructing lessons that everyone can learn from and be able to be demonstrate student learning in multiple ways as well.

That virtual lessons allows you to teach to all the learning types and allows everyone to be successful! 

addressing and meeting all learning styles is imperative to a successful hybrid experience for the instructor and the students.

We must allow the students to digest the information and make sure that they understand the content.  We have to ensure we reach all different levels of learners and the way they conceptionalize the instruction.  Some are visual, some are auditory and some are hands on.

I frequently take different learning styles and personality assessments to see if I have changed. I appreciate when students complete the same tools so they can have a better understanding of how they learn and how the fit into a group setting. Maximizing content input only increases our ability to reach every student.

Though it was a lot to digest in one place, I appreciated the table comparing the 4 different models for identifying learning types.  Often only one model gets attention.  I think it's good to use what is helpful from each of them.

I have learned about the various forms of learners and how to reach them.  

 

I learned that it is important to provide time for students to process the information they have just interacted with and that this is often overlooked in the learning process. Students should be encouraged to be aware of their individual learning styles this way the students will be more engaged and productive in their learning.

 

This forum’s main focus is on understanding the various learning styles of online students to ensure equity and equality. I gained an understanding on how this generation of students are nomadic, meaning technology has afforded them the opportunity to learn anywhere using digital devices. I learned a term that I was unfamiliar with and that is the concept of mobile multi-connections, referring to blogs, wikis, twitter and live-feed connections.

It's often overlooked, but it's important for new educators to learn about the different characteristics and categroies of learning styles.  Most individuals have the best of intentions when designing courses, information like this allows them to be aware of there students and go beyond the content and learner outcomes.

The information covers basic concepts of creating a course with instructional considerations. 

 

The well-managed use of internet, printed, and media resources can be more incusive thann traditional learning models, as learners with plethora learning styles can access content in the way they prefer, and accomplish learning production through the medium best suited to their specific learnning style. The internet can also produce increased opportunity for communication and interaction. This changes the role of instructor from presenter and assessor to that of facilitator, increases social learning, as students see their peers utilizing technologies in myriad ways, and enpowers the demonstration of multiple forms of intelligence.

It's important as an educator that diversity is the forefront of your planning. Student's not only learn at different levels but through different styles.  

When discussing the possible options for student learning and input, the only possible way to reach all learners is to customize each of their learning experiences. Customization means that students will learn in multiple ways( using textbooks, videos, audio, etc) at different times and with different materials (textbooks, internet, alternate materials). Providing multiple ways for students to learn the content and providing multiple ways for students to input their learning is the kind of customized learning environment teachers should strive to provide for all their students.

This module allowed me to learn that insturctional design must maximize reality of how students think.  Multipoint Mobile Connections help students maixmize theirs cnnections with teacher, other students, and the community.
