Overview
Learning styles refer to the different ways that individuals prefer to learn and process information. The concept of learning styles has been widely debated in the literature, with some researchers arguing that there is little evidence to support the idea that individuals have distinct, stable learning styles. [1]
Types of Learning Styles
There are several different models of learning styles, but some of the most commonly cited are the visual-auditory-kinesthetic (VAK) model, the Kolb Learning Style Inventory (LSI) [2], and the Honey and Mumford Learning Style Questionnaire (LSQ). The VAK model suggests that individuals have a preference for visual, auditory, or kinesthetic modes of learning, while the Kolb LSI and the Honey and Mumford LSQ propose different categories of learning styles based on factors such as how individuals process information and their approach to problem-solving.
