INCLUSIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT [4 records]

CONT

Linguistic inclusivity in the classroom contributes to inclusive societies. When the language of instruction is the student's mother tongue, it can help bridge a potential gap between languages spoken at home and at school. This approach provides a more inclusive form of education as it enables students to settle into the learning environment in a language familiar to them, which also contributes to the academic achievement and chances later in life.

DEF

The sum of the ways of problem solving, thinking and learning used habitually by an individual.

CONT

In addition to learning styles, there are two related concepts that deserve some attention : cognitive styles and thinking styles. So closely related are these concepts that they are often used interchangeably with some resulting confusion(Bonham, 1988a, 1999b; Keinholz, 1984). This is unfortunate since the terms are distinct and should be used with greater precision. Learning styles are the most inclusive and overarching in that they contain cognitive, affective, and physiological traits that indicate how learners perceive, interact with, and relate to the learning environment(Keefe, 1979). In short, learning styles include cognitive and thinking styles in addition to other dimensions such as personality and environmental traits.

OBS

There are many categories of learning styles; the most popular are the VAK (visual, auditory and kinesthetic), Kolb’s (divergers, assimilators, convergers and accommodators), Honey and Mumford’s (activist, reflector, theorist and pragmatic), Pask’s (holist and serialist) and Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI): (extrovert/introvert, sensing/intuitive, thinking/feeling and judgement/perception).

French

Domaine(s)

DEF

Ensemble des méthodes qu'emploie de préférence un individu pour résoudre des problèmes, penser et apprendre.

CONT

Le style d'apprentissage est donc un concept plus large et plus englobant que celui de style cognitif. [Le] premier inclut également les aspects affectif, physiologique et sociologique. Les deux sont relativement stables dans le temps, mais certaines recherches tendent à démontrer la possibilité d'une certaine évolution du style cognitif aussi bien que du style d'apprentissage par suite d'interactions de l'individu avec son environnement.

OBS

Il existe plusieurs modèles descriptifs des styles d'apprentissage. Les plus connus sont les modèles VAK (visuel, auditif et kinesthésique), de Kolb (divergeur ou innovateur, assimilateur ou analytique, convergeur ou pratique et accommodateur ou dynamique), de Honey et Mumford (actif, réfléchi, théoricien et pratique) de Pask (holiste ou sériel) et Myers Briggs (extraversion - introversion, sensation - intuition, pensée - sentiment et jugement - perception).
