Recenzii

“The structure of Learning Styles is very readable, with clearly defined chapters and sections that each discuss a different component of learning styles. The book is written in a conversational tone with limited jargon, making it approachable for parents, practitioners, and researchers alike. This book could be used in higher education coursework related to student engagement, differentiation, or pedagogical approaches. … I would recommend this book for anyone interested in the history or application of learning styles … .” (Kassandra R. Spurlock, Education Review, April 19, 2023)

“The book is more palatable for those educators, administrators, or parents already opposing the implementation of learning styles as a cure-all for struggling students. … The text should be highly recommended for future educators, current educators, and parents wanting to understand the conflicting messages about learning styles sent home pertaining to their child’s education. … This book plays a vital role in educators’ self-reflections on learning styles and its continued flourishing.” (John Essington, Education Review, April 19, 2023)
