    Fascinating view on learning styles that goes against much of what is being suggested to instructors and students.  Suggests variety rather than different learning styles is what makes multi-modal teaching successful.  Curious to see if there is more out there on this viewpoint.

    I've never really bought into the one student-one style approach, especially when I hear junk like "I'm a visual learner, so I really don't write many of my essays" or "I'm not assigning writing to him; he processes kinesthetically." To me, MI has always been a prompt to include different things across a unit.

      This is a connection for me to the technology and devices article we read today and did a quotation mingle around during our Disciplinary Literacy Institute. No kidding that we get a shot of dopamine or 'high' when our phone goes ding, or it vibrates.

      So maybe this kind of intelligence, then, is the "learning is a consequence of thinking"?
