Assignment on learning styles

Choose a character in a feature film/a Turkish or English TV serial that you like and make comments on the learning styles and the learning strategies and communicative strategies that he or she displays in the film/ TV serial by giving examples. How effectively do you think he or she uses them in the film? In what ways does he/she benefit from them and in what ways do they have a negative impact on him/her?

  1. I watched the movie called ‘Stand and Deliver’ and I really got affected from the teacher’s way of teaching. He was working in a suburban school in USA. He proved the USA wrong with the success of his students. He was math teacher. He teached his students how to be disciplined and hard-working. He showed that only way to achieve something was working hard. He gave high value to the interaction with his students. He knew their students well. It is really important to know students’ degree. Because only with knowing this, one can teach his students effectively. Other than being close to his students, he was also an authority guiding their students to knowledge. It was seen as negative by the students, because he even wanted his students to study even in a hot weather. Therefore, he was sometimes seen by students as a dictator. However, he was doing this for their goodness. It was really an effective movie and he was a good model for future teachers.
