Success stories in higher education,
By
This review is from: Practical Approaches to Using Learning Styles in Higher Education (Hardcover)
The Dunn and Dunn Learning Styles Model and all the corresponding educational and teaching strategies have proved beyond doubt their greater effectiveness with all kinds of students, including those at the tertiary level. This book, after two very condensed and up-to-date summaries of the theory and practice, gives more success stories of using learning-styles-based teaching in diverse settings in higher education. It is a report and does not give practical tools. After reading a number of such reports, I have a query. Each person's learning style is biologically and developmentally determined. To what extent can we change that? If teachers can change their teaching styles, can we use the Learning Styles Model as a guide to help students to develop more flexibility in learning? After all, we may not always have people in our personal and professional life, who will match our learning styles. In a society that depends a lot on the visual mode for success, could we first teach all children to be more visual in learning and achieve greater positive outcomes without depending on teachers to match our own style of learning? I'd like to see more future research done in this direction instead.
