Learning Techniques - A Review

Paper Summary:

This paper reviews three articles on the topic of teaching and learning; "Can Generation X-ers Be Trained?" by Shari Caudron, which focuses on training in the business environment; "A Tale of Four Learners" by Bernice McCarthy, which focuses on the school environment; and "Intergenerational Learning" by Corey Murray and David Bank, which focuses on the community college environment. The paper summarizes the articles and discusses ways in which they could be improved upon. The author also compares and contrasts the articles against one another.

From the Paper:

"Having noted the above, the article could benefit from a clearer explication of different teaching methods that could work not only for the different groups, but for integrated groups as well. Another limitation is that the article differentiates between two age groups, without acknowledging that there could be learning style differences within a single age group. While therefore accepting that there could be different learning styles, the article still treats these somewhat simplistically."
