To take action and share our knowledge about what we now know about learning styles, we decided to create our own surveys. We started by picking a target audience. Then keeping our target audience in mind, we created age appropriate questions and options based on the three learning styles. We then shared it with the teachers and/or students.
When Storm and Joshua were finished sharing their survey, they moved on to thinking about how they were going to organise and analyse their data. They asked Ms Leah to try out their survey so they could see what sort of analytics they received. They then analysed the answers manually. Storm: Ms Leah you are 40% visual, 40% kinaesthetic and 10% auditory. Joshua: How many students are in Grade 1? I've made a chart so we can record individual information and then look at the class as a whole. Other students began thinking about alternative ways to collate their data. Shu: Since we are doing K1 and K2, we think maybe they won't be able to do an online survey. Vishrut: They may not all know how to use the computer. Shu: And they will probably have difficulty reading the questions. Vishrut: So we would like to go in and help. And as some people may not speak English, Shu and Tomoki will translate the questions into Japanese for them. Vishrut: And I will also translate the questions into Mandarin for anyone that needs that. Afterwards, I'm thinking we can break up into groups based on their learning style and then have an activity we do with them based on it. Like, all of the kinaesthetic learners could do a Lego activity. Something like that. Shu: Yes. I think that's the best way for us to teach them, because they are in K1 and K2 so are still quite young. We should teach them about their learning style using their learning style.
