Differences among students are just differences; there is no need to confuse everyone by suggesting each has a learning style.

@garyackerman Dan Willingham and David Daniel (2012, Teaching to What Students Have in Common) tried to address this by covering learner differences that matter and the myriad ways in which learners are actually very similar (bc we are human)

And Antonenko et al (2020) have a great chapter on learnING differences and how we can design for them. All much better than the bunk learning styles theory.

@StephanieMoore yeah, I just finished that chapter in Ethics and Educational Technology… maybe you’ve heard if it :)
