In the classroom

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Teaching tips

Hand it out during the first class period alongside other beginning-of-year procedures so responses reflect students' honest first impressions.
Use the "I learn best when..." and "I am motivated by..." sections to inform early seating and grouping decisions.
Keep completed inventories on file to refer back to during parent conferences or when planning differentiated activities.

Skills covered

Self-reflection — students identify their own preferred learning modes (reading, video, hands-on, explanation) and motivators.
Goal-setting — students write a stated goal for the class in the open-response section.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

How could a teacher use the responses to the "I learn best when" and "I am motivated by" sections when planning early lessons?

Because the form separates learning-style preference from motivation type, a teacher can cross-reference the two to group students or choose activity formats (hands-on vs. reading vs. video) that match how a given student both learns and stays engaged.
