On: No evidence to back idea of learning styles

[codingdave]

But lets pull out one key point from amongst all the negatives in this article: "Students will improve if they think about how they learn"

The formal frameworks we have come up with haven't been effective, and trying to put them in a classroom haven't been effective. But that doesn't mean that everyone learns the same and we should just force everyone into the same box either. Our educational systems need work. We may not have the best answers yet, but we should keep looking.

i.e. learning styles may still be bullshit, but they can get you to self-reflect on how you learn.
