Statement of problem: learning styles are important for consideration in educational process of academic world.
Learning styles are innate and it affects student learning process.
As we know, we have different kinds of learning style such as: aural, visual, oral, kinesthetic, pictorial and etc.
In this context, student achievement is related to the learning style. Understanding students' learning style is important factor can affect their achievement .
The potential concern is whether technological devices such as computer assisted instruction (CAI) in classroom can operate effectively, practically and pedagogically.
However with great potential of computer in teaching and learning foreign language, there is no technical movement has been

In this study learning style is operationalized through the applying the VARK (visual, aural, read/write, kinesthetic) questionnaire administered by Fleming and Mills, (1992).
According to Richards and Schmit(2002,p111) : Computer assisted instruction (CAI )is defined as:” The use of a computer in a teaching program.. In this research ,among all existed technologies in the area of CAI, the researcher chooses video-projector technology.
Language Achievement: According to Richard and Schimt(2002,p284) Language achievement is defined as: “A learner’s mastery, in a SECOND LANGUAGE and FOREIGN LANGUAGE, of what has been taught or learned over a period of instruction”.
The researcher will assess learners’ achievement through a teacher made achievement test.
Limitation and delimitation:
Limitation:
In order to have more reliable result, the researcher will need more participants to select ,but the main problem is an unavailability of participant on the intermediated level
Also lack of suitable institution is undeniable.
In addition permission of such institution is factor need to be

60 participants will be select based on OPT scale.
At the second section, the researcher will apply VARK questionnaire to the 60 EFL intermediated learner at Soroosh institute ,
The learner s will answer the questions in 20 minutes and after that the researcher will collect the data and recognize how many of learners prefer visual learning style and how many of them are prefer aural learning style. And after that the researcher will put all data in SPSS to find the percentage of those visual and aural learners and will divide them into 2 group. The VARK questionnaire include 16 multiple choice questions, each of questions has 4 options to be choose. A, B, C, D.
At the next stage there is scoring chart, in scoring chart the learners should circle the letter that correspond to their answers.
After apply ing Questionnaire, The researcher will apply posttest and pretest to the 2 group of learners, the researcher will select 30 participants in Aural category, and other 30 participant in visual category. The researcher will apply posttest and pretest to each group of learners
For weeks four and five we read Dirsken, chapters two and four. There were several key points throughout these two chapters, but three stood out to me the most. The first key point is from Chapter Two, and it is the four different learning styles. These styles are, Kinesthetic, Aural, Visual, and Read or Write.
Tyne’s article starts out broad and then narrows in on each learning style. Tyne gives examples of the strengths and weaknesses of people with each of the three learning styles and encourages parents to identify their child’s learning style. LSSU is half as long as Tyne’s article. “Kinaesthetic, Auditory, and Visual Learning Styles for Children” is written in a more persuasive manner. Opposed to “What Learning Style Does Your Student Use?” which is more expository article.
Learning styles are important as people can process more in their learning and if they do not informed then it would decrease their learning capacity.
Enhance Student Learning 1) Identify Student Learning Needs a) Throughout the year (ongoing) b) Tailor instruction to meet student learning needs c) Assessment data used to drive instruction/remediation 2) Support a) Identify neediest students/ Title I, ELL, SPED b) Identify student knowledge/performance gaps c) Share student information/common planning d) Effective use of support staff i)
With decades of research, it came to a conclusion that not all students learn the same way. Jeremy Roschelle is co-director of the Center for Technology in Learning at SRI International. In his research, he examines the classroom use of innovations that enhance learning difficult ideas in mathematics and science. Chad Lane has a Ph.D. and M.S. in computer science and wants to create educational technology that will compelling and engaging.
A mentor in nursing is defined as someone who can facilitate learning, supervise and asses nursing students in a practice setting. This in turn produces efficient and effective students who become competent and will have mastered the craft and art of caring. Mentorship is significant to students as it helps students develop their professional identities, attributes and competence and also enables students to learn through the creation of the supportive working and learning environment as an individual (Clutterbuck 2004). Decisions taken by mentors in assessing students have significant impacts on securing the nursing workforce in the future. This is because they help safeguard the ongoing excellence in the delivery of personalized patient care while making a major contribution to the development of the nursing profession.
Classroom discipline is important when attempting to develop a positive learning environment. All grade levels can benefit from having guidelines within the classroom that help manage the classroom. The four strategies described in this chapter are divided students into base groups. These groups provide and teamwork atmosphere that promotes leadership and responsibility.
Quwllmalz both of those authors are associated with the learning science research institute, in the University of Illinois. This article's main focus is on the importance of the class assessments in classrooms and how the technology can improve our classrooms. When the teachers gives immediate feedback to the students after using technology, that can create a new way of learning in classrooms. Technology helps every student on every assessment in any level of education. This article focuses also on the idea of creating a new way of learning tasks that help students with their higher order thinking.
According to Woronov (1994), computers themselves do not automatically change the nature of teaching and learning, but that it is the way the teachers use the technology that creates a conducive learning environment. If computers are not used effectively then students lose out on a promising
The Seven Learning Styles. Visual (spatial):You prefer using pictures, images, and spatial understanding. Aural (auditory-musical): You prefer using sound and music. Verbal (linguistic): You prefer using words, both in speech and writing. Physical (kinesthetic): You prefer using your body, hands and sense of touch.
I also agree to the fact that the teachers and students must collaborate to achieve an effective outcome. A question was raised about how a classroom might change or adapt when a computer is integrated into the curriculum and there were five stages about technology adaption in the classroom. Which are the Familiarization, Utilization, Integration, Reorientation, and Evolution.
As a result, in this article he proposed different kinds of visuals and how they can be used in the classroom. Yunus, Salehi, and John (2013) conducted a research to investigate the teachers’ opinion toward using visual aids in classroom. Therefore, they selected 52 English teachers in Malaysia and interviewed with them. The majority of teachers believed in the significant effect of visual aids on teaching materials. In fact, they used visual aids to engage the students and also make the materials more interesting for
Digital learning has various effects on the academic performance of the students and this digital learning can help the students to improve their performance in the classroom. Digital learning really makes the students work easier. Because of this, the students may have an advanced knowledge by easily searching their lesson using this technology. With this digital technology, it gives more information to the students to gain more knowledge about their school works. There are lots of technology that were integrated into the classroom that help the students learn with comfort, and that allows the student to gain and recall more information.
Schools are the second place after home where students’ behavior and future educational success are shaped. At schools there are many elements or factors that can influence the teaching and learning process that may take place. Rasyid (2012) stated that there are four perennial truths that make the teaching and learning process possible to take place in the classroom. If one of these is not available, there will be no teaching and learning process, though the learning process itself may still take place, they are: (1) Teacher, (2) Students, (3) Material and (4) Context of time and place. All of them are related to one another.
We cannot exclude technology which helps to develop all these characteristic of the modern classroom. These classrooms help student to enhance their knowledge and to prepare themselves for higher
