The article you cite doesn't actually provide any data for their claims, and only links to another article on the same site which, again, doesn't actually provide any data. In fact, even checking the articles in their "Research" section, there is no information about the actual data provided, and all links I've seen were only to other articles on the same site. It leads me to believe that the people behind the site have a specific agenda they're pushing, rather than "...presenting the facts as best they can be determined, giving voice (without fear or favor) to worthy research, sound ideas, and responsible arguments..." as they claim in the About Us section.

  did you at least do some vetting on this one instead of just grabbing the first google search result or are you going to rely on others to point out it's flaws and then just post another link to another bad article in response with no comment on what vetting you did since you didn't?

    I thought it was very well known and didn't require thesis level citations. Several links of higher quality have been provided in the thread that show this isn't something I just came up with as was my original intent.

The funny thing about Learning Styles is that there isn't any data that supports it. But there are lots of studies that debunk it. Here is a Tedx Talk about those studies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=855Now8h5Rs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=855Now8h5Rs This is one of the studies (that with citations to many dubunking studies) that I was assigned in my M.Ed program: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1111/j.1539-6053.2009.01038.x https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1111/j.1539-6053.20...
