Learning styles are a good example. Providing different lessons tailored to visual and auditory learners (and separating learners so they get the lesson that matches their style) is time consuming and doesn’t improve results. We can’t even reliably measure learning styles.

If you’ve been paying attention, you will have seen that a number of my blog posts take down a variety of articles that are rife with malarkey.

A colleague regularly chides his alma mater for continuing to believe in learning styles. While learners do differ, there’s no evidence we should adapt learning to learning styles, let alone can we reliably identify them. This is only part of the broader problem. This, too, is a myth!
