Unit 14. Learner Needs

UNIT 14.        Learner Needs

At the end of this Unit I learned about the importance of needs as part of the learning, according the kind of needs, reason that each Learner need to develop into the acquisition of a foreign language.

      First, during the process of education is vital that Teachers and educators have attempted to uncover the best method for teaching students. The majority of evidence available suggests that multiple factors influence a student's ability to achieve in the classroom, none the least of which is learning styles and preferences. In addition recognition and trying to meet learner needs are part of being a good teacher.
Second, into the kind of needs, which define personal needs because it helps in the classroom with:  security, goals, learning expectations with the reason for contemplate the age, gender, cultural background, motivation and personality. Also Learning needs determine specific ways of learning in the target language, learner autonomy, those characteristics are focused in the learning Style, looking for the suitable level. Finally the need for a future professional needs, specific vocabulary and grammar for the adequate use in training education.
       Therefore, most students have a learning preference related to their cognitive style of thinking that is fixed or innate. Because of, this students will react to material presented to them in the classroom in different ways. It is vital that teachers begin recognizing the significance in learning differences and uncover methods for style differences and preferences within the classroom. The ability of a student to construct meaning from information and apply it to settings and situations as well as a student's ability to perform varying tasks depends on their learning style.
