We have just completed a teaching and learning style inventory. As a result, you have discovered to what extent your styles match. As teachers, it is important that we help students identify their strengths and utilize those strengths to compensate for their weaknesses. Based on this evening's discussions/activities, why is it important to inventory students' learning styles? How can knowing whole class learning styles (and individual students') help you with assessing and diagnosing student exceptionalities?
It is important to identify the learning styles of your students. Just as before, every student learns differently. If a teacher knows how the students learn best then he or she can use those strengths to assess the child or group of children. This will help to focus on the strenghts and not the weaknesses and help push the student to his or her highest maximum potential.
