Event details
Education seminar
In this session we will explore some of the myths about learning styles that currently prevail. We will explore what a research-informed approach to styles combining cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and education perspectives can usefully tell us to inform our practice. A pedagogical framework underpinned by an understanding of cognitive styles will be outlined as part of this discussion. We are hoping to have a lively and informed debate. If you have any key questions that you would like us to cover in the session, please email c.a.evans@soton.ac.uk
