Question

Kathy is a social worker. She has enrolled herself in a course on corporate social responsibility. The course is

comprised of various stories and vivid examples that engage people's emotions and senses and are communicated
mostly by visual aids that are designed well. Kathy has chosen this particular course because it perfectly matches
her learning style. In the context of Kolb's cycle of learning, Kathy is a(n)
diverger
assimilator
converger
accommodator

Answer 1

A). Diverger.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the learning cycle proposed by Kolb, social workers tend to have a 'diverging' learning style as they display an interest in the senses, as well as, emotions of people. Kathy would be characterized as a 'diverger' as she views the 'bigger picture' and gathers the necessary information in order to apply them into the coherent whole. She is concerned about the emotions of the people and this course she joins to get new ideas for reflective observation.
