Document Summary
Individuals may learn better in one mode or another. One type of processing may be utilized more depending on the situation. Conceptually driven what we expect is based on past information (concepts or ideas in large chunks of information) Past experiences/knowledge related to a stimulus allows us to make inferences or predictions. Starts at higher level analyzes and reasoning and work our way down to details: example: treasure in the sand , michael goes to europe , new vocabulary is learned in context. Pattern recognition through the use of holistic context: fill in the missing pieces. Whole to part: category to subcategory, conversation down to phoneme, sight word recognition. Data driven starts with a stimulus. Individual stimuli are pieced together to form a whole: cactus, sand, hot, scorpion , missing/part of picture is put together to make whole. Part to whole: sound to word - break and fix or sound blending, word to sentence formulation, sounding out words for reading.
