Divide content into chunks…
![Page 22: Powerpoint](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051819/54c75cfe4a795915108b456f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Learning Styles
The analytical learning style tends to view information as bounded, objective, and isolated. The relational learning style views information as embedded in a larger context and as inherently unbounded and subjective.
Cohen, 1969

Learning Styles Analytical Focus on detail. Impersonal materials. Abstract ideas. Relevance unnecessary. Independent opinion. Sequential/structured. Persistent regardless
of interest.
Relational Focus on global. Social contexts. Verbal presentation. Relevance important. Consider other opinions. Improvisational/intuitive. Need stimulating work.
