2. LET ME LEARN
Diversity in learning is both the
largest and the most invisible
source of diversity we interact with
on a daily basis.
Bonnie Dawkins,2010
3. Today you will…
Find out how you learn
Become aware of your learning
and how it affects your teaching
4. The Let Me Learn Process®
Is an advanced learning system that
uses the most current research on the brain-mind
connection
Is validated both nationally and internationally
Enables appreciation and acceptance
of all learners
Empowers the learner to achieve in and
out of school
5. Let Me Learn
Cognition
The Let Me Learn Process®
is based on the Interactive Conation
Learning Model (Johnston,
Affectation
1996). This depicts learning
as a function of the
brain/mind connection.

9. By understanding learning patterns you will
understand yourself. Are you the one…

Who wants to
work alone? Who is playing a
different tune?
Who is organizing
everything?

14. Sequence
I want:
Clear, step-by-step directions
To go over and over directions
To see a sample
Time to develop a plan
15. What you see…
Lists
Bullets, checks, asterisks
Clarity of directions
Looking to someone for
feedback
Neat copy or work product
Symmetry
16. What you hear…
“What am I supposed to
do?”
“What do I do next?”
“Could I see an example?”
“Wait a minute! Don’t go
to the next one yet.”
17. I’ve been thinking about a couple of things that we might do while you are
here and I wanted to run them by you all to see what you think! I also don’t
want to plan you to death, so let me know if you all want to do is sleep in
and be beach bums all week – I can do that too:
Option #1 – A trip to Waterside Park, (It’s only a 5 minute ride, but I
thought the girls might like to get out on the water and plus it is only 50
cents!) Once we get to Portsmouth, we can walk to the Children’s Museum
– a hand-on, non-stuffy museum with a cool dinosaur exhibit there now. I
thought then we could have lunch at Portside – an outside eating place with
tons of choices, and then take the ferry back to Norfolk.
Option #2 – A day at Mount Trashmore- feeding ducks, flying kites, playing
in the playground…a neat place built by local school kids. I thought a picnic
there might be fun too.
Option #3 – A day (maybe two?) at the beach. If the girls are scared of the
waves, we could go to the bay side instead. If you have an umbrella or
beach chairs, bring them along. We only have two chairs and one small
umbrella to cover us.

“Well, actually…”
“Wait a minute. I’m still
writing.”

Sequence
I am a person who loves directions. I want to know what is expected. I thrive on
doing things in order. I seek organization, although sometimes it looks like a mess.
I like consistency and dependability. I plan then act.
Precision
I use this as needed. I like trivia. I challenge statements that I doubt. I like people
to share information with me. I read to have information to develop my plan.
Technical
I do not like to work by myself. I do not care about how things work. I avoid using
instruments or tools. I rely on directions to lead me to the solution. I get frustrated
because I can not figure things out.
Confluence
I will take calculated risks. I connect things. I can see the big picture. I do not like
surprises or changes that are unexpected. I have ideas.
36. By Understanding Learning Patterns
the Teacher Gets a Picture of The
Learner
Who wants to do

Who’s wants to Who insists on a

hands dirty?
Who wants to
work alone? Who is playing a
different tune?
Who is organizing
everything?
