Summary

Introduction

Learning model is an indispensable component when a learning activity is conducted. Each student has a different background, level of cognitive, meta-cognitive, habits, and motivation. De Porter (2000) states that learning model is standardization for developing the one's skill in interpersonal situations. Learning model is an approach that describes how individuals learn or how each person focuses on the process and attain the difficult and new information through different perceptions (Ghufron & Risnawita, 2014). By using media, but by knowing the learning models of students, they are able to find ways to make learning easy and fun (Kusnida, 2015). If the teacher knows the learning models possessed by students, so they will be able to provide a supportive circle and make it easier for students to absorb information optimally. Students can learn and get good learning results when they understand their learning model. This makes it easier for students to apply learning model precisely, and to improve intelligence skill (Kolb, 1984)
