TASK 1
1.1 Comparison of different learning styles
Different leaning styles are used in different learning programme and events. The
learning styles of every person is different from each other. In traditional methods employees
prefer experimental and participative types of learnings. This is the fact that different individual
learns in different manner (Kokt, 2015). Every individual invents their new learning styles as per
their suitability. Leaning events are then organise as per the learning style demanded by the
individual. Two models of learning are very commonly used:
 David Kolb’s model: According to Kolb learning procedure is performed with four
modes in which leaning cycle start from experiences then observing then conceptualising
and then experimenting. It is stated that individual can follow one learning styles out of
four learning styles i.e. Accommodating who concentrate on experiments and practical
work. Converging is a learning style in which a person concentrates on application of
theories. Diverging learning style is focused on imaginations and discussions.

Assimilating is a learning styles which work for developing new theories by using
reasoning.

 Honey and Alan Mumford's model: This model renames the stages of learning cycle on
the basis of managers experiences. It is a development tools for the individuals itself
which is different from the Kolb's learning styles (Budeva, Kehaiova, and Petkus, 2015).
In this model, they define stages having the experiences, reviewing experiences,
concluding the experiences and then make policies for next steps. The new learning styles
given by Honey and Mumford, who is Activist who work for new learnings. Reflector is
a style in which the individual like to think about learnings. Theorist is a person stated
that how things are related to each other in learnings. Pragmatist in which the learning
applies in practice.
