Learning Styles

There are four distinct learning styles. Most people will have a preference for one of the four, but to some extent also use the others. The better you use all four of them, the more you will learn from your experiences.

See if you can pick out the learning style that you seem to choose naturally from the four styles below.

ACTIVIST STYLE

– This person enjoys new experiences and dives right in

– So, he likes the excitement of drama or a crisis

– And he enjoys out-of-the-box ideas

– He likes using other people as sounding boards

THEORIST STYLE

– This person enjoys theories and concepts

– So, she enjoys intellectual exercises

– And she performs well in structured situations

– She doesn’t like shallow, unsubstantial thinking

REFLECTOR STYLE

– This person enjoys detailed research

– So, he likes just sitting back and thinking

– And he thinks before he acts

– He doesn’t respond well in crises or with time constraints

PRAGMATIST STYLE

– This person works well on practical tasks

– So, she enjoys putting things into practice immediately

– And she needs guidelines

– She doesn’t enjoy learning that does not have a practical outcome

If you can see that these four learning styles are all aspects of the complete learning process? In stage 1 the activist has the experience. Stage 2, the reflector, reviews the experience. In stage 3 the theorist makes conclusions from experience. And in stage 4 the pragmatist takes action based on the first three stages.

So, whichever style is your strong suit naturally, you can benefit from practicing all four stages.
