I may have been in the wrong jobs, but the idea is fantastic. I've said before that I had no idea that training & development was actually a study, so to speak. But let's go for it. For just a moment, let's forget about the ROI, and think about how motivated people can be if they know what they are doing and looking forward to.

You get one thing and then your lost on another it makes no sense. I feel like I could read read and read more. Not fun! There are so many teaching styles to remember and know! lol Once again I have to agree with Tiffany...we are a lot alike! =) haha no doubt Tiffany…I’m super confused!

More theories! This chapter was really hard to follow. Thought the poscast helped...I'm still confused. I understand cognitive. I think I am one of these people. I am a problem solver. I also understand behavior approach. I am having a hard time with Humanist though. Ugh! Too many theories to wrap my brain around. Is the humanist theory more of a combination of both cogitive and behavior? This stuff makes my head hurt lol! =P Yikes! More theories! This chapter was really hard to follow.

Thank you for the clarification. It all made sense. It is amazing as to how many learning styles are out there and we probably use a combination every day without really thinking about the process. I know that for me, I enjoy problem solving and I have to be challenged intellectually at all times. I even take a simple task and find ways to challenge myself ~ to be more productive.

I teach elementary students and I've also given adult training classes in my previous place of employement. I've always thought there were differences in learning styles. This chapter also enlightened me as to what my own learnng theory was and why. Very good! This chapter was so interesting to me.

I would agree with the two examples kevinmhuff gave with new employee orientation and teaching Microsoft Excel. I liked the breakdown of the learning styles you gave and the question asks about the careers using different learning styles. I liked the way you used the taxonomy and how you do not need to memorize it but be able to use whichever step you are going to apply. I like the way you grouped the organizing of groups of items and the use of “if then statements”.</p> I liked the way the breakdown of how you can use different styles for different settings.

The way kevinmhuff described the Behavioral and Cognitive approaches made it easy to understand. I really think that the podcasts should be part of the regular sessions.</p> I must say I also had not much time for the blogs… they are pretty good though.

Sometimes in this class I feel like it is a psychology class. This chapter did help me put into perspective a lot of the ways learning takes place. I think this chapter was a turning point of the group. And I too think there aren't very many people taking advantage of this extra credit or their to busy right now to do it. I am making a good grade in the class but I still would like to have extra points just in case.

Is everyone getting an A or what? This helped me understand the approaches better as well, as far as setting up training materials.
