Learning Strategies

The document discusses learning strategies and learning styles. It defines learning strategies as intentional behaviors and thoughts used by learners to help them understand, learn, or remember new information. It then discusses various learning strategies including attention, memory, language learning, processing and organizing information, graphomotor skills, and higher-order thinking. It also discusses cognitive, metacognitive, and social learning strategies. Finally, it outlines different learning styles such as auditory, visual, verbal, logical/mathematical, physical/kinesthetic, social/interpersonal, and solitary/intrapersonal learners.

Definition of Learning strategies

• Richards and Platt 1992: 209 state that learning


strategies are: intentional behavior and thoughts used
by learners during learning so as to better help them
understand, learn, or remember new information.
• Language learning is about the acquisition of
communicative competence about learning how to use
language appropriately in various communicative
situation. (Braun), 2006.
Process of learning strategies
• Attention
• Memory
• Language learning
• Processing and organizing
• Graphomotor
• Higher order thinking
Attention

• Paying attention is the first step in learning


anything.
• It is easy for most of us to pay attention to
things that are interesting or exciting to us.
• It is difficult for most of us to pay
attention to things that are not.
Memory
• Memory is the complex process that uses three
systems to help a person receive, use, store, and
retrieve information.
• The three memory systems are
(1) short-term memory
(2) working memory
(3) long-term memory (a mind’s ever expanding
file cabinet for important information we want
to retrieve over time).
Language Learning

• Students with good language


processing skills usually do well in
school.
Processing and Organizing
• We process and organize information in two main
ways: simultaneous (spatial) and successive
(sequential).
• Simultaneous processing is the process we use to
order or organize information in space. Having a
good sense of direction and being able to “see”
how puzzle pieces fit together are two examples of
simultaneous processing.
• Successive processing is what we use to order or
organize information in time and sequence.
Graphomotor
• The writing process requires neural,
visual, and muscular coordination to
produce written work.
Higher order thinking
• Higher order thinking (HOT) is more than
memorizing facts or relating information
in exactly the same words as the teacher or
book expresses it. Higher order thinking
requires that we do something with the
facts. We must understand and manipulate
the information.
Learning strategies

• Cognitive strategies
• Metacognitive strategies
• Social strategies
Cognitive strategies

• When they manipulate the language


material using indirect ways,
e.g. through reasoning, analysis, note-
taking, and synthesizing.
Metacognitive strategies

• When they identify preferences and


the need for planning, monitoring
mistakes, and evaluating task success.
Social strategies

• When they learn via interaction with


others and understand the target culture,
e.g. asking questions, asking for
clarification, asking for conversation help,
talking with a native-speaking partner, and
exploring cultural and social norms.
Learning style
• Learning styles refers to the preferential way in which
the students absorbs, processes, comprehend, and
retains information
• Learning style include of:
Auditory and musical learner
Visual and spatial learner
Verbal learner
Logical and mathematical learner
Physical or kinesthetic
Social and interpersonal
Solitary and intrapersonal
Auditory and musical learner

• They learn mainly through listening so


they learn best through discussions and
talking. They benefit most from reading
texts aloud and using a tape recorder.
Visual and spatial learner

• Visual learners need to see things to fully


understand them. They learn best from
visual objects such as diagrams, charts,
etc. They prefer to write things down.
Verbal leaner

• They prefer using words, both in speech


and writing.
Logical or mathematical learner learner

• They prefer using logic, reasoning,


and systems.
Physical or kinesthetic
• Learners using their bodies, hands, and sense of
touch. They can use their muscles well so they
can be used in playing, tidying, cleaning the
board, collecting activity books, etc. They learn
best through using their hands making things,
fitting things together, or taking them apart so
hands-on activities are ideal to help those
students learn best.
Social and interpersonal

• They prefer to learn in groups or with


other people. They have the ability to
understand others’ feelings and intentions.
Solitary and intrapersonal

• Students prefer to work alone and use self-


study. They have the ability to understand
well their own feelings, strengths, and
weaknesses. They tend to write a personal
diary, achieve independent projects,
discuss feelings about certain topics,
express likes, and dislikes, etc.
