Learning Style Assessment & Design

A Taskforce Learning Tool

----- Abstract -----

 

The missing piece in learning systems design for so many years is now available to enable organizations accelerate the learning process. The "missing piece" is that element of individual accommodation that enables the instructor to capture the strengths of each learner in the design and delivery of training. After 20+ years of research and application in instructional systems design, learning style methodologies provide a powerful tool to shorten learning time, increase skill levels and build individual excellence in corporate performance.

The system is especially effective in the communications and teaming processes and gives the individual a sense of control over his or her own learning pace, expectations and corporate destiny. The self-insight and understanding gives the learner a reliable frame of reference that he can use to take charge of his learning.

 

The web-based assessment provides immediate feedback and an opportunity for increased understanding, design support, and/or consultation. For more information, contact Elizabeth Thomas, Associate Director for Learning Systems at the Center for Advanced Technologies. Email ethomas@centertech.org or call 214/800-8810.
