All students, given appropriate assistance, can learn. All students can learn as long as information is presented to them in a form that they can understand. It is a teacher's responsibility to know each student's needs and to provide each student with the means to meet those needs. A teacher can make learning a reality by understanding and adapting to each student's learning styles and methods. Learning styles refer to environmental, emotional, sociological, physiological, and psychological stimuli that effect a student's learning.
Some students learn better, for example, in bright light and others in dim.
Some require sound while others require silence. Likewise, variations in food intake and room design can effect a student's learning. While it is not possible to accommodate every learning style in a classroom, those previously mentioned all have potential. Students that require these stimuli can sit closer or farther away from a window, can bring head phones and healthy snacks, or can sit in bean bags. Students also learn through a multitude of methods.
