The different theories relating to learning are interesting when you think them. Children learn so easily and therefore don't really need a specific strategy to learn. Granted, many kids do learn better one way than others, but they will still retain more information than adults when learning in a "non-prefered" way. Adults tend to need specialized attention when learning, and most adults have figured out how they learn best, and have trouble retaining information from another source.

The IT project assignment seems cool. I'm going to try to get with Mrs. Patten for mine. I like the idea of helping people and teaching.

This semester has been rough for me. A lot of homework, and a lot of stress. I've been dealing with some issues, outside of school, but i'm trying to keep my mind clear and focus on school and work.

I like the question about the three different learning groups (by age) because i've dealt with this before. I teach private drum lessons, and I've taught different age groups. Also, I work for the Geek Squad, and we offer computer training, so there again I have worked with different age groups. The younger crowd always seems to want you to give them an objective, and then they want to figure it out for themselves. However, the senior crowd tends to want you to walk them through it step by step, and have layed out instructions on how to accomplish the goal.
