Learning styles are a concept that most educators intuitively understand at a basic level. Because of that, they continue to intrigue. Here, authors Celli and Young, synthesize various models of learning styles and create a model of their own that designates three styles: visual, auditory, and tactile/kinesthetic.
The authors demonstrate various methods of determining learning style and ways in which to incorporate that knowledge into course and classroom planning.
Learn how to use an understanding of learning styles to enhance your students' learning.
