- heinrich5991 11y agoI can't find any references as to why learning styles are a myth in that article.
- rickhanlonii 11y agoAs mentioned in the article: > surprisingly few studies of this format have produced supporting evidence for learning styles; far more evidence (such as this study) runs counter to the myth. There's been a number of meta-analysis done (e.g. [1]), and they overwhelmingly conclude that there's just no support for learning styles. So, it's a myth until proven otherwise. See also Willingham's book based on his research [2], and his FAQ here which links to more research [3].
