CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Honey and Mumford created their variation on Kolb’s theory mainly to help themselves understand learning styles for the corporate professional world. Honey and Mumford’s LSQ is what? Kolb’s theory and Honey and Mumford’s theory both consider what? The Processing and Perception continuum variables.

Detailed explanation-2: -The four different ways in which people prefer to learn that Honey and Mumford have identified, relate to a different stage in the learning cycle. These are Activist, Reflector, Theorist and Pragmatist. In this model Mumford and Honey describe the learning styles as a continuum that one moves through over time.

Detailed explanation-3: -Honey and Mumford’s learning styles were developed by Peter Honey and Alan Mumford in 1986. Their work is inspired by and built upon Kolb’s learning styles model (Leaver, 2005) however, they produced their own Learning Styles Questionnaire (LSQ) because it was found that Kolb’s LSI had low validity with managers.

Detailed explanation-4: -It is a model of learning theories developmed by researchers Peter Honey and Alan Mumford who identified four distinct learning styles: Activist, Theorist; Pragmatist and Reflector.

Detailed explanation-5: -Kolb is a four-step learning process i.e. concrete learning, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation. Effective learning is achieved when a learner progresses through each stage. The learner may also enter the cycle of learning at any step using a logical sequence.
