Students have diverse learning styles, and the challenge to educators is in designing a balanced curriculum across all styles, teaching essential content through a rich repertoire of instructional strategies. This short guide presents information essential to individualized teaching for diverse learning styles. The guide begins with an explanation of learning styles and profiles, including the four basic styles: (1) sensing-thinking; (2) sensing-feeling; (3) intuitive-thinking; (4) intuitive-feeling. The guide then describes the two dominant attitudes toward information processing--extroversion and introversion--and the two orientations toward closure--reflective and active--and how these various elements interact with one another. Following is a discussion of cultural differences in learning profiles and the ways various cultural groups fare in the American educational system. Finally, the guide presents An Integrative Model (AIM) to provide educators a common language with which to discuss making the essential match between content, learner's needs, instructional delivery systems, and appropriate assessments.
