Episode 90: The Learning Styles Myth: An Interview with Daniel Willingham




Psychology in Everyday Life: The Psych Files show

Summary: Guess what? There's no such thing as "learning style" (the theory that each of us has a preferred way to learn new ideas. There are many supposed kinds of learning styles, such as a visual learning style, an auditory style, kinesthetic, etc.). Don't believe it? Neither did I at first. I was sure for a long time that I personally had a visual learning style. Now I'm not so sure anymore. Listen to what Dr. Daniel Willingham has to say on this topic.
