Learning style icebreaker

 

Think of a time when you learned a new skill—this could be either academic (e.g. how to do a particular math problem) or non-academic (learning to knit, ride a bike, cook, drive, etc.)—and this could be something you learned yesterday, last week/month/semester/year or many years ago!

 

 

Describe the learning experience:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Was this a positive or negative learning experience—and why?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Was there another person or persons involved in this learning experience—or did you learn this solo?

 

 

 

 

 

 

In thinking over this one particular experience, can you make any generalizations about your own personal learning style?
