Module 1: Getting ready to learn

We as a freshman student in university, we need to realize that life in our high school era was totally different compared to university's life. We also need to be wise in indetermining  whether it is good or bad for ourselves. To be frankly honest, school life and university life is very different in terms of learning because there's no more 'spoon feed' thing from our teacher and lecturer. We need to be ready ourselves for the transition when we enter the university life.

Type of Learners

Everyone have their own learning style. It is important for both lecturers and students to know their learning style as this affects their behavior in class and their response to different activities and material during classes. There are 3 most common learning style in all students in this world.

 

The 3 which is:-

 Visual learner are prefer seen or observe things around them such as pictures, diagrams, demonstrations, displays, films and etc. They also work well on lists, written directions and instructions.

2. Auditory Learner

Auditory learner are prefer the transfer of information through listening, either to the spoken word or sounds and noises. They are also able to handle spoken instruction  and directions over the phone. Reading loud also will be beneficial for them.
