Facilitating Learning

I thought that the chapter on facilitating learning was very interesting. Usually when there is discussions on how people learn in classes the only types of learning that are mentioned ate the bodily/kinesthetic, verbal/linguistic, and visual. I haven't taken a pshycology class while at Iowa State so I wasn't even aware of the other types of learning that the book describes. As a peer mentor I will adjust to meet the needs of all of the learning styles of my students by incorporating different teaching tools in lessons. I will try to use visual elements, physical activity, and perhaps music during lessons. My German teacher in high school used to play classical music while we took exams to help us concentrate. She would also use cheezy german children's songs to help us learn vocabulary. Out of everything that I remember from her german class I remember most the songs we sang.

What did the bartender say to the jumper cables when they walked into the bar?

OK you two - don't start anything.
