Parents or teachers who complain about their children's dullness should learn more about learning styles:

 Does your child have a dull mind?

Learn about learning styles!

The fact that children are more or less intelligent has nothing to do with their parents' educational ability or their birth unless the child is born with a disease that can adversely affect the learning process.


Then why do some children learn quickly during the teaching process while some have difficulty in learning or memorizing the same lessons?


 This question is related to educational psychology, which is a regular science and is regularly discussed in every curriculum of teachers.


According to educational psychology, a child's learning style differs from one another. One of the problems of our education system is that teachers start teaching all children in the same way because they are not familiar with these different learning styles or do not take care of them during teaching. Due to which some children understand the matter while some are unable to understand it. This is how children are labeled as intelligent or dull-minded. The real situation is very different. This requires understanding what learning styles are and how they affect our learning process.


We all use our different senses during the learning process and process the information from these senses into useful information after processing it in the brain. It is as if the process of learning begins with the use of the senses through which we receive information.


Depending on which of your senses you rely on most to get information, your specific learning style comes into being. If you recognize these learning styles can be no reason to think that the process of teaching a child to be deprived of learning.


Great learning styles, according to research three. These three are combined to represent a word called VAK. Details below.


1- V means Visual, meaning that children with this learning style rely more on their sense of sight to learn and they learn more when the teaching materials include pictures, maps, graphs, tables and so on. 


1- A means auditory, meaning that children with this learning style rely more on their sense of hearing than their other senses to learn and learn better when lectures, audio cassettes are included in the teaching materials. Include more stories, stories, etc. that children can understand by listening and then make appropriate pictures with them in their minds.


1- K means Kinesthetic, meaning that children with this learning style prefer to feel and learn by moving their hands and feet instead of seeing and hearing. The best way to teach them is to engage them in practical activities. You will also remember to walk around the room repeatedly while reading to memorize tables or paragraphs in your childhood.


It is not necessary for a child to have only one specific learning style, but still one of these three learning styles will prevail in every child's learning style. The question now is how to organize the teaching materials and teaching methods so that they have the capacity and capacity to address these three learning styles.


The answer to this question is to first train the curriculum developers to identify different learning styles and compile textbooks and other materials based on them.


After this, training of teachers should be arranged so that they can take the children with these three different learning styles with them during the teaching and do not rely on any one learning style during the teaching process. If teachers have proper training and teach with these different learning styles in mind, no child will need to be labeled as intelligent or dull-minded.


How do you know which child's learning style is?


There are many tests on the Internet that can help you determine your own, or someone else's, learning style. But does every child's learning style need to be known for effective teaching? If so, that's great. And even if they are not, at least in the formulation of teaching materials and in the process of teaching, the fact that not all children have the same learning style should be taken into account. Be done For example, a short lecture on any topic, then a question and answer, then an exercise, a number of physical activities in which children can learn the practical application of the topic. If these methods are used during teaching, all children will understand the subject according to their own learning style.


(This information regarding learning styles applies not only to children, but also to adults.)


 At the same time, David Colb's four learning styles, and the theory of multiple intelligences, can be helpful in understanding children's educational psychology. Before labeling your own or someone else's child a dull mind, be sure to ask if their teachers have addressed their specific learning style during the teaching process.

Seven key differences between Parenting in India and Dutch:

 - A Dutch mother, Ivana, recently shared her experiences living in Mumbai for nine years, highlighting seven key differences between parenting in India. She emphasises that neither approach is "better" or "worse," but rather they involve different trade-offs.  Key Differences in Parenting: According to her viral reflections on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/reel/DWJv7RLDM-z/), the primary contrasts include: * Community vs. Solo Marathon: In the Netherlands, parenting often feels like a "solo marathon". In Mumbai, she experiences a "real village" where family, neighbours, and the building community are always available to help. * Independence vs. Interdependence: Dutch culture raises children to be "fierceley independent," such as cycling to school alone at age eight. Indian parenting focuses on interdependence and being part of a larger, supportive system. * Child-Friendly Public Spaces: She notes that children in India are acce...

Online Schools and eclectic curriculum:

 - Online schools, while offering flexibility and accessibility, come with several disadvantages, particularly when they employ a mixed eclectic curriculum. An "eclectic curriculum" typically means drawing from various teaching philosophies and methods, aiming to personalize learning.

General Disadvantages of Online School:  * Lack of Face-to-Face Interaction and Social Isolation:    * Reduced Engagement: Students miss out on spontaneous discussions, immediate feedback, and the dynamic energy of a physical classroom.    * Isolation: The absence of in-person interaction with peers and instructors can lead to feelings of loneliness, reduced motivation, and a diminished sense of community.    * Limited Social Skill Development: Opportunities for developing crucia...

Why Forcing a 4-Year-Old child to Write Homework Is a Losing Battle:

 - For many parents, the moment a child brings home their first “homework” is a source of pride. It feels like a sign of maturity and academic progress. But what if that pride is misplaced? What if the struggle to get a four-year-old to sit still and write is actually damaging their relationship with learning? It's time to challenge the outdated notion that early homework is beneficial and embrace the powerful, evidence-based alternative: play. Forcing a four-year-old to do homework, especially writing, is developmentally inappropriate and counterproductive. At this age, a child's brain and body are not yet ready for the fine motor skills required to hold a pencil correctly and form letters. The act can be physically frustrating, leading to a poor grip and a lifelong aversion to writing. More importantly, it can cause emotional distress. When a child is pushed to do a task they are not equipped for, it can lead to anxiety, meltdowns, and a feeling of inadequacy. We are inadvert...
