Learning Styles
Many people have same type of learning styles and many people also have many different type of learning styles it depends on the individual it self what styles they want to do. Whatever the goals is whatever the vision is whatever the mission is when we work togather as a group we must understand each other type of learning styles. As for me I do like both theory and pratical learning styles which each of those two have advantages and disadvantages but for me pratical learning styles give me more chances to gain more knowledge skills and experienced. As a youth worker we dealing with different people different needs different speciality different styles of working… so this is the opportunities for me to learn from them which for me consider as pratical types of learning. I say this because everytime i worked with other people everytime i talked to other people i will learn something new. When we talked about type of learning styles it also related to environment.. sorrounding.. which for me it depends the situation or it depends on what i want to learn and also it depends on my mood also… Sometimes i need quiet place to do my learning somtimes i need radio to switch on because sometimes music can help us to process our minds or the way of thinking.
Practical of learning styles. Above picture taken during Bengkel Gulintangan which organize for the youth to improved more about this music
Example of theorical type of learning styles.
For me i usually used so many types of learning styles because different people different needs or different type of style gaining the knowledge so we must be flexible to each other especially the youth who have different needs. As a youth worker also we must treat all the people equally although it is vey hard to do but we must try to be equall and its up to us what method we used what styles as long it feels confortable for people or as long as people can manage and understand the way i worked. Sometimes people already understand to do the work by practically syles and sometimes people need expalnantion (theorical) or sometimes they need both practical and theorical type of styles. However we must make sure also everyone can do the work everyone can understand everyone is HAPPY.
For me sometimes i used left-brained but it also depends on the situation also what types of activity or project and for me i used more on my right brained because of images for me can give me clear image what i want to learned… for me it also easier for me by looking at the picture there so many to learn and easier to remember. As the people say the right brained usually creative , well inutive and spontaneous which as a youth worker need it very much but when it comes from doing any work at office (indoor) for me i usually used lef-brained and people also say they were usually punctual and organized.
Whatever we faced whatever we learned who the people we faced especially the new one i feel too or meet people for the first time but as a youth worker we must be confident dari segi mana mana aspect example in public speaking dan sebagainya. As for me good listner.. easier to make friends is some of my personality because sometimes the youth shared their problem shared their experienced dan sebagainya. Ini membolehkan lagi kita untuk mendekati mereka lagi. For me i liked to share and listen to people problem giving advice shared experienced especially the youth (if they wanna shared). Different people have different type of intelligence different type of specaillites which we can shared and learned to each others.
