Visual learners
Most of our learners today are visuals, which means they
need things to be displayed to enable them to see so they could do or
represent.
Visual learners want to see pictures, concept maps, colors,
videos, charts, graphics, simulation, schematics, flow charts, and animations.
Their representations can be part of a learning portfolio that learners revisit
in later courses or year within a program of study.
Virtual tours might be relevant for displaying and engaging
in the content in fields such as geography, history, health and religious
studies.
*“Visual learners usually:
· Like to
read.
· Are good
spellers.
· Memorize
things by seeing them on paper.
· Are
organized.
· Would rather
watch, than talk or do.
· Have good
handwriting.
· Notice
details.
· Remember
faces better than names.
· Have trouble
following verbal directions.
· Are easily
distracted by noise.
· Doodle on
their paper.”

Phases of the R2D2 Model
Students nowadays live in technological world. They expect
24/7 access to technology and support. Therefore, instructors make sure to
engage their students by using web 2.0 technology tools that transform their
levels into professionalism. Instructors analyze the needs of their students,
select the tools and materials, and evaluate the media effectiveness.
Instructors use best practices for on-line teaching, in response to fascinating
education and technology related trends, a practical model was created
"(R2D2)- that should help online instructors integrate various learning
activities with appropriate technologies for effective online learning for a
diverse array of e-learners" (Bonk& Zhang, 2006).
When we use the R2D2 (a cycle of read, reflect, display and
do) we need to evoke the Technology Pedagogical Content knowledge (TPACK) model
as well as a model of technology integration called the SAMR (substitute,
augmentation, modification, and redefinition); which help us know what could we
do with the web 2.0 tool, or how could we use it in the classroom.
