Diverger Learning Style


The main characteristics of this learning style are a strong reliance on individual feelings to make judgments as well as the reliance of careful observation of others and situations so as to form opinions.

 The diverger learner has a very strong imaginative ability which makes him/her adept at viewing a situation from many perspectives and coming up with multiple feasible solutions. Since the diverger learner is capable of coming up with multiple solutions, brainstorming may be one of the instructional methods that may be most productive for such a person (Comings, Garner & Smith, 2004). 

Their flexibility and ability to think spontaneously means that a hands-on exploration may be the most stimulating method. Adult educators should therefore ensure that they engage the student with diverger learning style in such ways for optimum results.
