Educator’s Role in Learning
The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by:• assessing problems or deficits• providing information in unique ways• identifying progress made• giving feedback• reinforcing learning• evaluating learners’ abilities

The Educator’s Unique Position
The educator is vital in giving support, encouragement, and direction during the process of learning.
The educator assists in identifying optimal learning approaches and activities that can both support and challenge the learner.

Assessment of the learner includes attending to the three determinants of learning:
* Learning Needs
(WHAT the learner needs to learn)
* Readiness to Learn (WHEN the learner is receptive to learning)
* Learning Style (HOW the learner best learns)
Haggard, 1989

ASSESSING LEARNING NEEDS
![Page 6: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Assessment of Learning Needs
• Identify the learner• Choose the right setting• Collect data about, and from, the learner• Involve members of the healthcare team• Prioritize needs• Determine the availability of educational
resources• Assess demands of the organization• Take time-management issues into account
![Page 7: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Needs are prioritized based on the following criteria:
Mandatory: Needs that must be learned for survival when the learner’s life or safety is threatened
Desirable: Needs that are not life-dependent but are related to well-being
Possible: Needs for information that are “nice to know” but not essential or required because they are not directly related to daily activities or the particular situation of the learner

Learn!
![Page 11: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
P = Physical readiness
E = Emotional readiness
E = Experiential readiness
K = Knowledge readiness
The Four Types of Readiness to Learn Are:
![Page 12: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
– measures of ability– complexity of task– health status– gender – anxiety level – support system
The Components of Each Type of Readiness1. Physical readiness
![Page 13: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The Components of Each Type of Readiness2. Emotional readiness
- Anxiety level- Support system- motivation - risk-taking behavior- frame of mind- developmental stage
![Page 14: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The Components of Each Type of Readiness3. Experiential readiness
– level of aspiration– past coping mechanisms– cultural background– locus of control– orientation
![Page 15: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The Components of Each Type of Readiness 4. Knowledge readiness

![Page 16: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Learning Styles
![Page 17: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Six Learning Style Principles
• Both the teacher’ style prefers to teach and the learner’s style prefers to learn can be identified.
• Educators need to guard against relying on teaching methods and tools which match their own preferred learning styles.
• Educators are most helpful when they assist learners in identifying and learning through the their own style preferences.
![Page 18: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Six Learning Style Principles(cont.)
• Learners should have the opportunity to learn through their preferred style.
• Learners should be encouraged to diversify their style preferences.
• Educators can develop specific learning activities that reinforce each modality or style.
![Page 19: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Learning Style Models and Instruments
• Brain Preference Indicator (Right-Brain, Left-Brain, and Whole-Brain)
• Embedded Figures Test (EFT) (Field-Independent/Field-Dependent)
• Environmental Preference Survey (EPS) (Dunn and Dunn Learning Style Inventory)
• Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)
![Page 20: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Learning Style Instruments (cont.)
• Kolb Learning Style Inventory (LSI)
• 4MAT System
• Gardner’s Eight Types of Intelligence
• VARK Learning Styles
![Page 21: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Right-Brain/Left-Brain andWhole-Brain Thinking
• Brain Preference Indicator• Right hemisphere—emotional, visual–spatial,
nonverbal hemisphere Thinking processes using the right brain are
intuitive, subjective, relational, holistic, and time free
• Left hemisphere—vocal and analytical side Thinking process using reality-based and
logical thinking with verbalization
![Page 22: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Right-Brain/Left-Brain andWhole-Brain Thinking
• No correct or wrong side of the brain• Each hemisphere gathers in the same
sensory information but handles the information in different ways
• Knowledge of one’s own brain hemispherical performance can help educators identify the strengths and weaknesses of various teaching methods
![Page 23: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Examples of Right-Brain/Left-Brain and Whole-Brain Thinking
• Prefers talking and writing• Recognizes/remembers
names• Solves problems by
breaking them into parts• Conscious of time and
schedules
• Prefers drawing and manipulating objects
• Recognizes/remembers faces
• Solves problems by looking at the whole, looks for patterns, uses hunches
• Not conscious of time and schedules
Left Brain Right Brain
Whole brain—combining both sides of the brain
![Page 24: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Field-Independent/Field-Dependent Embedded Figures Test
• Embedded Figures Test • Learners have preference styles for certain
environmental cues.• Helps the educator structure the learning task
and environment• Helps assess the extent to which learners are
able to ignore distractions from other persons• Assesses whether learners see the whole
first or the individual parts of a task when learning

Kolb Learning Style Inventory
Concrete experience Abstract conceptualization
Active experimentation Reflective observation
Diverger Converger Assimilator Accommodator
![Page 28: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
4MAT System
• There is a combination of Kolb’s model combined with right/left brain research.
• There are four types of learners.• Educators can address all four learning
styles by teaching sequentially from type-one learner to type-two learner, etc.
• Learning sequence is circular and cyclic.
![Page 29: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Gardner’s Eight Types of Intelligence
(#8 identified in 1999--naturalistic)
Linguistic intelligence Musical intelligence
Spatial intelligence LogicalĞmathematical intelligence
Bodily kinesthetic intelligence Intrapersonal intelligence
Interpersonal intelligence
![Page 30: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Interpretation of Style Instruments
• Caution must be exercised in assessing styles so that other equally important factors in learning are not ignored.
• Styles only describe how individuals process stimuli, not how much or how well information is learned.
• Style instruments should be selected based on reliability, validity, and the population for which they are to be used.
• More than one learning style instrument should be used for appropriate assessment of learner.

Generational Styles- Silentsborn 1925-1942 >61 years old
This group is not clueless about technology; the fastest growing group of Internet users
Older adults may need technology training. Let your students dictate the pace; don’t rush things. Be polite, say “please” and “thank you”. Use proper grammar at all times Avoid all off-color language or humor. Even if you’re using computers for training, provide
plenty of opportunity for personal
***interaction: Older learners like to interact with people, not machines.
![Page 32: Chapter 4 Determinants of Learning. Educator’s Role in Learning The educator plays a crucial role in the learning process by: assessing problems or deficits.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062216/56649dba5503460f94aab015/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Generational Styles-Baby Boomersborn 1943-1960 43-60 years old Show them that you care, Be nice Fairness is important. Tell them they are important. Know their names. Give them a chance to talk-they want to show you what they
know. Dialogue and participation is key. Don’t be authoritarian; don’t boss them around. Be democratic--Treat them as “equals” Acknowledge what they know; ask them lots of questions so
they can demonstrate what they know Treat them as though they’re young, even if they aren’t Avoid “sir” and ma’am”, which they may take as an insult Respect their experience

Older peopleDo’s and Don’ts
– All printed material should be clear, easy to read, large enough font.
– Provide a summary of topics and goals. – Be pleasant, personal but not too intimate. – Don’t put them on the spot. Give them time to prepare. – If you’re a 20-something trainer… – Get coaching from someone older to understand the
mindset of this generation. – Invite someone with a little more gray hair to be a
guest presenter in your class, to help with credibility. – Show respect for age and experience.
