Literacy Minnesota: The Learning Styles Myth (and the Teaching Practices Worth Keeping)

September 14 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm
Literacy Minnesota Logo

Many of us were taught that students learn best when instruction matches their “learning style.” In this webinar, we’ll take a closer look at where that idea came from, why it stuck, and what research actually tells us. We’ll explore how learning‑style labels can end up doing more harm than good for learners. At the same time, we’ll focus on what is worth keeping — the useful lessons learning‑styles theory offers for language instruction. You’ll leave with practical, research‑based strategies you can use right away, without sorting students into boxes.

Please note that you may be asked to participate in discussion groups during the webinar. Please plan to join us from a quiet setting where you can see the PowerPoint slides and use your audio.
