Describe how your students learn best.
Hmmmmm....very strange question, it's a little hard to describe how they learn best, without knowing which particular students. All students are individuals and it's hard to lump them all together to describe.
However, they learn best when they are engaged and feel part of the subject matter, if you can associate what they are learning to the real world and/or if you have a vested interest in them and their life.
They like to feel important (as do all of us!) and I believe that if you care about your students they will be able to feel a sense of belonging to the class, and thus care about the outcome of the class, and their fellow students.
This also helps because it gives them a safe place to be and doesn't start off the 'fight or flight' reflex and thus allows learning to take place.
Is that what you were driving at? :)
