Monday, May 21, 2007 Learning Styles as Fortune Telling My research into understanding the role of learning styles in e-Learning continues.

Make a boomer uncomfortable -- "do this, there are no guidelines" Looking at research/lit: workaholics, can do, optimistic, strongly influence policy, high tech can intimidate older members. Apply research. Most research has common flaws/consistency -- fail to take into account gender diff and socio-cultural and economic differences.
