> While learners have preferred styles, effective instruction matches the content, not learning styles. A science class should use graphs to present data rather than verbal descriptions, regardless of visual or auditory learning styles, just like cooking classes should use hands-on practices rather than reading, whether learners prefer a kinesthetic style or not. I hear ya, but I still don't buy it. Teaching / learning is a fork of the communications heuristic: "It's not what you say, it's what they hear." Receivers (i.e., students) have a spectrum of receiving abilities, skills and expectations. Regardless of subject matter, to assume one size fits all (students) is (to put it bluntly) wrong. Put another way, yes the topic factors is, but ultimately it's about the *individuals* receiving that information.
