Abstract

The essential idea of learning styles is that people have different preferred ways of obtaining and processing information. There are a number of ways of classifying these differences and Chapter 2 of this volume provides a concise summary and comparison of the different theories. The core of the book comprises three chapters that describe the three learning styles in detail and give practical suggestions on teaching strategies to better accommodate each type of learner.
