Learner Question

Judgers, while learning, address the question, “How does this create order in my life?”

Learning Style

Judgers (J) focus on rules and order above all else. They are decisive, self-regimented and planners, being task-oriented. They need the essentials. They create intricate, steady study plans, structuring study to avoid any emergencies. One assignment will be completed prior to another one starting.

Deadlines are sacred to Judgers. They will not be late. They are quick to take action, especially when a deadline is expected. They prefer to make a decision and move on.

Judgers answer questions based on their current knowledge but cannot tolerate loose ends and unanswered questions in their learning process

Cognitive Environment

Judgers need order, control and rules. Objectives and rubrics are essential to their learning process. They like detailed instructions

Their environment needs to be structured, learning toward more traditional teaching techniques. They can participate effectively in a group atmosphere but need guidelines, efficiency and order.

Judgers are most comfortable:

• Knowing the expectations required of their work
• Structure
• Order
• Prefer independent work and studying
• Group work not disliked but not needed to enhance learning experiences
• Creating plans
