MAJORS IN SCHOOL
​
-
Exact Science or Natural Science: a specialization associated with exact science such as mathematics, physics, chemistry and other similar science.
-
Non-Exacts Science or Social Science: a specialization associated with science other than exact science such as social science, language, history, geography, and other similar science.
f the difference between exact and non exact science no more than 10%, you may choose exact or non exact because the potential genetic of both major almost same.
GENERALLY, THE DISCIPLINE SPECIALIZATION IN SCHOOL IS DIVIDED INTO TWO :
LEARNING STYLE
Have you ever tried to learn something fairly simple, yet failed to grasp the key ideas? Or tried to teach people and found that some were overwhelmed or confused by something quite basic?
If so, you may have experienced a clash of learning styles: your learning preferences and those of your instructor or audience may not have been aligned. When this occurs, not only is it frustrating for everyone, the communication process breaks down and learning fails.
Learning Style Theory proposes that different people learn in different ways and that it is good to know what your own preferred learning style is. Learning styles refer to an individual’s preferred manner of processing material, or characteristic style of acquiring and using information when learning.
Common learning styles include :
-
Visual (Learn through seeing).
-
Auditory (Learn through listening)
3. Kinesthetic (Learn through moving, doing & touching).
VISUAL LEARNER
KINESTHETIK LEARNER
AUDITORY LEARNER
Visual Learner may tend to use phrases like these:
-
Learn through seeing. Use strong visual associations. You often use lists to organize your life and your thoughts. Plus, when spelling, you recognize words by how they look. You remember faces but forget names. You usually learn best by associating pictures with the words or concepts being used. You benefit when visuals are used as part of a lecture (whiteboard, transparencies, Power-point, films, videos, maps, charts, posters, graphs, etc.)
-
Let's look at it differently.
-
See how this works for you.
-
I can't quite picture it.
-
Let's draw a diagram or map.
-
I'd like to get a different perspective.
-
I never forget a face.
KINESTHETIC Learner may tend to use phrases like these:
If the physical style is more like you, it's likely that you use your body and sense of touch to learn about the world around you. It's likely you like sports and exercise, and other physical activities such as gardening or woodworking. You like to think out issues, ideas and problems while you exercise. You would rather go for a run or walk if something is bothering you, rather than sitting at home.
When you consider a child’s learning style - kinesthetic learners (who require movement to learn) or tactile learners (who require hands-on learning) - these environments can be overwhelming. Often times, the children who can’t succeed in these classrooms are labelled dyslexic, ADD, and ADHD. Is this your child?
AUDITORY Learner may tend to use phrases like these:
-
As you might have guessed, auditory leaners learn mostly by hearing. Auditory learner advantages include the fact that you don’t have to see or read what you are required to learn. You can listen to e-books, hear recorded lectures or figure things out through discussion.
-
One of the major benefits of this style over other styles of learning is that you’re unlikely to be in a situation where there is no auditory stimulus to learning. Most videos and lectures have a speaking component, after all. The only situation where an auditory learner might be at a disadvantage is if written material is the only source of instruction.
-
Using word association to remember facts and lines.
-
Recording lectures.
-
Watching videos.
-
Repeating facts with eyes closed.
-
Participating in group discussions.
-
Using audiotapes for language practice.
-
Taping notes after writing them.
