Book Description

087120259X 978-0871202598 April 15, 1996
This how-to book is for supervisors interested in understanding, implementing, and guiding staff in the proven educational methods of learning styles.

Learning how to learn is what the learning styles approach is all about. Advocate Rita Dunn explains learning styles and how they develop and describes how to teach students with diverse learning styles. International studies and testimonials indicate statistically higher standardized achievement test scores for students who are taught to use their learning style strengths and yield evidence that this approach makes a difference for all kinds of learners.

As an award-winning educator and a supervisor, Dunn offers tips on how to introduce learning styles to your staff and students, and how to respond to the cognitive, physiological, and sociological aspects of learning that influence the students in your school and district.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent "how-to" book on implementing learning styles!, January 1, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Implement and Supervise a Learning Style Program (Paperback)
This is an excellent "how-to" guide for implementing learning styles in your school or system. Based on the Dunn and Dunn model the book covers the basics of learning style theory and how to take the first steps. Excellent information on re-designing the classroom and personalizing learning. This is a great resource for staff development.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent overview of the Dunns' Learning Styles, March 16, 2001

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: How to Implement and Supervise a Learning Style Program (Paperback)
This slim book is ideal for busy administrators interested in improving education. Key ideas based on decades of research into Learning Styles and inventory tools are presented very succintly. Low and average achievers make a greater improvement in standardized achievement test scores when their learning styles are matched, esp. through tactile, kinesthetic and global styles. Different alternatives for developing a Learning Style Program are proposed: workshops, self-teaching team, learning styles committee, hire consultants or a development team. Provision of matching resources will be an important next-step. There is a brief introduction to redesigning classrooms and teaching strategies. The practical questions that open-minded and dynamic decision-makers have to face are not no longer whether, but how they can find the physical, financial and personnel resources to implement such a daunting programme through viable, gradual and effective processes.
