Learning Styles

Used in education since the development of field theory, learning styles have become more popular in recent years due to ADHD and the Multiple Intelligences theory of Howard Gardner. Many researchers question the validity of the concept and others insist on its importance. The research is ambigous, with some studies showing no significant differences and others the contrary.
