There's this (slightly snarky) blog that disputes the value of "learning styles", so I thought you were serious. �They kinda said it would do kids more good to learn flexibility by learning to connect with different teaching styles. �I wholeheartedly agree with the Carol Dweck theory, ie. people grow. �So that gives me a different feeling about learning styles. I think kids should adapt. But I think the "learning styles" studies are great as far as they give teachers another tool to present material with. �Things are different from when I was growing up, but they used to say that if someone didn't understand something show them a different way. �There's usually several ways you can do something and one of them will click. �I'm not sure that's how "learning styles" are applied by whoever uses the findings. �It's just a topic. �Jenbrdsly who has a degree in early education just said in another thread here you can't be too rigid in sticking to formula when you're educating live children. �

I thought you meant what you said and you thought I was talking about something else, lol.

I decided to paint a mural this week so I didn't do much on the wiki. �I will though.
