DIFFERENCE
How does Learning Competency differ from learning styles?
Lack of Empirical Evidence
NOT EFFECTIVE
Numerous studies have shown that there is no empirical evidence that accommodating the learning styles of the individual improves learning or better academic performance.
Oversimplification of initial research
CAN BE DETRIMENTAL
Each category is schematic – a deliberate oversimplification in order to highlight important features. However, the initial research has been hijacked for commercial purposes. Dependent on their preferred learning styles impair individuals’ potential to apply or adapt themselves to different ways of learning.
Learning Competency Model
EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE
Our learning competency model is a evidence-based practice that encourages the individual to adopt deep approaches to learning. Research shows that this enables numerous long-term benefits beyond academic performance.
