Multiple Intelligences
In the past, when I have studied about the theory of being a visual or auditory learning, I have felt like I was both, given the situation. After reading this article I felt more strongly that I could learn either way.
I like the idea in this article that says as teachers and educators, we should look for similarities in how children learn, instead of focusing on the differences. This makes sense to me, especially looking at it in a teacher's perspective, who might feel overwhelmed with trying to teach in a lot of different styles. If a teacher mixes things up in the classroom, it is scientifically proven to boost attention. When students pay closer attention, they learn better. It is probably more beneficial to change up the way a teacher teaches rather than focusing on the way students learn.
