Learning Styles - The Tracksuit Model
This is a model of Learning Styles which has its roots in the Myers Briggs personality type indicator (MBTI). Within it can also be seen indirect references to the Honey & Mumford learning styles (Activists / Reflectors / Theorists / Pragmatists).
The term ‘learning style’ in the context of this model relates more to the match (or mismatch) of personality and the approach to undertaking or providing a learning opportunity. It is likely that if the approach to learning matches the individuals way of thinking, feeling and behaving, this will have an impact on the quality and quantity of what is learned – and make the learning process easier.
If there is a mismatch of the approach to learning and the personality type of the individual it may make the learning less comfortable. In the short term this need not affect the quality and quantity of the learning. It just might just take that bit more effort to achieve it. In the long term however a mismatch might seriously harm the quality and quantity of learning.
