Learning styles
D. Cobb

First, I would define learning styles as processing information in different ways,

for instance, seeing, hearing or modeling a skill for students. In classrooms teachers use
different ways of learning style, and each style is depends on student`s needs. I believe
using different learning styles will be beneficial for all students and interesting in
classrooms.
Three learning styles that I am not aware of are physical/kinesthetic, logical and
social. Physical is a learning style which means students prefer using their bodies, hands
and sense of touch. In classrooms, students who learn through physical learning style are
active and learn through physical activities.
In logical style, students prefer to use their brains for logical and mathematical
reasoning. They can recognize patterns easily which lead them to classify the
information. Students who use logic work well on numbers and they like to do math
problems.
Social learning style is when students prefer to learn in groups and with other
people. Social learners enjoy working and solving problems with other students, they like
to work in groups to help each other. Social learning style students prefer activities in
classroom, and they learn and understand from other people.
