Week 9 - Art. Fires. Future.

Yellow group stands for the visually aware, auditory and                                        kinaesthetic teachers


I wish I got out of the multitasking habit. I'm not overreacting if I tell you that this week was a very challenging one for me. I have been busy working on the final plan report, completing the course readings, tasks and assignments. The job duties involving speaking evaluations to a lange group of candidates and the administrative issues at the end of a 16 week online course I have been moderating added to  this week's workload; not to mention, the final paper I am currently preparing for the graduation of a Master Degree in Sociology that  I am doing on Risk Groups and Social Support Services. 


This week's topic, exploring the students learning styles, has been very interesting. As I have already mentioned in the NICENET post, to be able to better address my students' learning needs, I always apply them an online questionnaire at the beginning of any course, either online or face-to-face.



One way of exploring the students VAK abilities is by encouraging them design their own digital stories. There was an article that I have read and some examples that I have recently accessed which  are very illustrative. 



As I am a visually aware teacher, I use class posters for decoration, teaching and learning purposes. If you like, download and add  the next 3 inspiring posters to your bank of visual materials.

  1. Hello, Rolanda! Your posters are wonderful! I agree that every time at our lessons when we teach we touch the future and this future is in every our pupil! I remember the ancient Greek legend of Icarus and Daedalus! Teachers help pupils to be free in their future - they teach them to fly!!!
    Thank you so much for your posters!
    Best regards,

  2. My dear partner,

    You did a great job this week like previous ones ;) A great post. I enjoyed reading each line of it. As a visual learner I also enjoyed the posters. I downloaded them to my computer and will surely use them in my trainings in the future.

    Have a great week.

But sometimes pressure brings the best in you. Stay busy and productive! All the best and have a great day!
