Neuro-Linguistic Programming

When did it start? ---- What is it?Neuro-Linguistic Programming comes from the disciplines that influenced the early development of its field, beginning as an exploration of the relationship between neurology, linguistics, and observable patterns (programs) of behaviour. John Grinder, a Professor at UC Santa Cruz and Richard Bandler, a graduate student, developed NLP in the mid-1970s.

Definition 1:The reception, via our nervous system, of instances received and processed by the five senses (sight - iconic, hearing – echoic, touch – haptic, taste – gustatory, and smell – olfactory), the resultant use of language and nonverbal communication system through which neural representation are coded, ordered, and given meaning using our ability to organise our communication and neurological systems to achieve specific desired goals and results.

Definition 2:The Study of the Structure of Subjective Experience and what can be calculated from it.

Learn via their eyes, in charts, graphs, flow charts, and symbolic representation

Auditory oriented studentsLearn via their ears

Read/Write oriented studentsLearn via the written/printed word

Kinaesthetic oriented studentsLearn by doing – simulated or real
