Who are we?
• Edin Kadric• PhD Student• B. Eng. M. Eng. McGill University• Advisor: Prof. DeHon• Current work: Energy efficient computing

Exercise
• Numbers for Instructors:
• Count numbers by students:– Bin: 9+, 8-4, 3-1, 0, 1-3, 4-8, 9+

Dimensions
• Active (ACT) vs. Reflective (REF)– Doing vs. thinking
• Sensing (SEN) vs. Intuitive (INT)– Facts and methods vs. abstractions and innovation
• Visual (VIS) vs. Verbal (VRB)– Pictures, diagrams vs. descriptions
• Sequential (SEQ) vs. Global (GLO)– Linear steps vs. context and connections

Active vs. Reflective
• Active learners tend to retain and understand information best by doing something active with it– "Let's try it out and see how it works" is an active learner's
phrase• Reflective learners prefer to think about it quietly first.
– "Let's think it through first" is the reflective learner's response.• Active learners tend to like group work more than
reflective learners, who prefer working alone.• Sitting through lectures without getting to do anything
physical but take notes is hard for both learning types, but particularly hard for active learners.

Sensing vs. Intuitive (1 of 2)
• Sensing learners tend to like learning facts• Intuitive learners often prefer discovering
possibilities and relationships.• Sensors often like solving problems by well-
established methods and dislike complications and surprises;
• Intuitors like innovation and dislike repetition. • Sensors are more likely than intuitors to resent
being tested on material that has not been explicitly covered in class.

Sensing vs. Intuitive (2 of 2)
• Sensors tend to be patient with details and good at memorizing facts and doing hands-on (laboratory) work
• Intuitors may be better at grasping new concepts and are often more comfortable than sensors with abstractions and mathematical formulations.
• Sensors tend to be more practical and careful than intuitors; • Intuitors tend to work faster and to be more innovative than
sensors.• Sensors don't like courses that have no apparent connection to
the real world; • Intuitors don't like "plug-and-chug" courses that involve a lot of
memorization and routine calculations.http://www4.ncsu.edu/unity/lockers/users/f/felder/public/ILSdir/styles.htm

Visual vs. Verbal
• Visual learners remember best what they see– pictures, diagrams, flow charts, time lines, films,
and demonstrations. • Verbal learners get more out of words--
written and spoken explanations.

Sequential vs. Global
• Sequential learners tend to gain understanding in linear steps, with each step following logically from the previous one.
• Global learners tend to learn in large jumps, absorbing material almost randomly without seeing connections, and then suddenly "getting it.”
• Sequential learners tend to follow logical stepwise paths in finding solutions;
• Global learners may be able to solve complex problems quickly or put things together in novel ways once they have grasped the big picture, but they may have difficulty explaining how they did it.

Aware of Differences
• Differences among people• Differences between faculty and students?– Claim college courses are biased toward:• Reflective, intuitive, verbal, sequential
• This course:–Active, sensing?, visual, global
• Read explanation and student survival guide
