Module 3 Activities
Representation:
See below my Venn Diagram with the key points for both: the Engagement and Representation principles of UDL.
Both principles are focused on the learner. They focus on choice, accessibility, and inclusion, recognizing that learners have unique backgrounds, strengths, and needs. We can remove barriers and build confidence by offering options for how the content is presented and how learners can engage with it. When learners feel understood and supported they are motivated and can process information more efficiently, and apply their learning in meaningful ways.
Learning Styles:
My preferred learning styles are represented in the meme below:
Two other ways to learn:
One way I could incorporate other learning styles into a workshop is through hands-on activities, for example, by giving the groups a workplace scenario for them to solve. This activity would combine Kinesthetic-Physical and Interpersonal-Social styles.
Another way could be to include Auditory-Musical and Intrapersonal – Self-reflection activities, where participants would listen to a short audio clip and then spend a few minutes reflecting or writing about how the topic relates to their own experiences.
Perception:
You can find below a presentation that can be used when training employees on how to use the VLookup function on Excel. This is a very useful function for administrative coordinators. I choose the presentation slides because they can be left on screen with the step-by-step, while the instructor can go around the classroom helping the learners if they have any question on the practice.
