Monday, May 21, 2007 Learning Styles as Fortune Telling My research into understanding the role of learning styles in e-Learning continues. Im struck by why I find this topic so interesting. And on that note, I think Im pretty much done now with my learning styles assignment. As a practical person, I tend to avoid theory.
