No Evidence of Learning Styles

I know that there are many people who believe that there is such a thing as learning styles. However, there is little research from cognitive research that supports it.

In this video, Daniel Willingham, who recently published "Why Don't Students Like School?" explains why there is no support for learning styles. Something is going on the way students learn things differently but not what we may think.

So building on yesterday's post look at this current research. It will be worth the 6 minutes to watch it and well worth it:
