Student Learning Style Surveys
You know how some students can be given the "hairy eyeball" and
that's all it takes and other students get the "hairy eyeball" and
see that as "Those are fighting words...let's go to the mat." Well,
it all has to do with personality traits. Reading personalities is about
as easy as reading someone's mind. Taking an old personality survey
and revamping it for modern times and then pairing it with research
based interventions we invented a new learning style survey. We used
colors from the rainbow to describe different characteristics of student
personalities and learning styles. By giving this survey, you will
be able to determine a color code for each student and work specifically
with those that you are having difficulty. You probably only need interventions
for about 5% of the students in your classes. However, anyone can have
a bad day and knowing how to deal with a student on a bad day is just
as important as knowing how to deal with a student on a day to day
basis.
