Description

According to studies people learn in many different ways and they understand better what they are taught in their predominant learning style that can be either visual, audio, read or written and kinesthetic. Moreover, it is not only the different learning styles that affect the learning process but also the multiple intelligences that define the variety of ways that students learn and acquire information and range between the use of words, numbers, pictures, music, body movement and so on. Thus, one of the main goals of this course is to help teachers detect the different learning styles and multiple intelligences of their students. There will be both theory and practice during this course so that teachers will be more qualified and confident to use new practices in their courses that will fit to the needs of each student in order to have the best academic and learning results. Course participants will be invited to journal their experiences during the course, share knowledge and work
