I just got put on that committee after they found out Tom and I were looking at learning styles. I think I will also check with the director of the Students for Success" They deal with students who need extra help. I wonder if that would explain why I talk outloud to myself so much when I am doing something--it drives Ed bananas G. jackief DocCec wrote: DocCec [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Oh I'm sure it does.

I do know we tend to learn aurally rather than visually or tactually -- or so they say, and I know it's true for me. I remember what I hear, verbatim and with all intonations intact, far longer than I remember what I've seen. What is mind mapping? Is it connected to that N factor that makes our minds more like a grid or a spider web than like the linear minds of the S's? Doc Hi Doc I have never heard of mind mapping? Think I will go surfing. I would imagine that the N factor would be the case as I think that is the abstract thinking vrs concrete thinking, isn't it. Had to go to my ole' alma mater yesterday and talked to one of my mentors--he is now dean of graduate studies and we started talking about this stuff. He is an NF too so you know how abstract we were getting. Poor Ed, he is an SF. The learning stuff I pulled from the net really picked up on the aural learning aspect of the NF personality. I should go back in and get the other three temperaments so I can compare them easily. The majority of my students last year in Psych were ESTJ's and were majoring in nursing or criminal justice. They tended to rank individual experience and visual aids as the most effective in learning new material. They really thought 'participant observation' assignments helped them most in learning. Hmm, I wonder. I wonder if this has a bearing on the problems in education to some degree. jackief Subscribe/Unsubscribe, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the body of the message enter: subscribe/unsubscribe law-issues -- In the sociology room the children learn that even dreams are colored by your perspective I toss and turn all night.Theresa Burns, "The Sociology Room" Subscribe/Unsubscribe, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the body of the message enter: subscribe/unsubscribe law-issues
