The Memory Palace Fallacy – Learning Styles Don’t Actually Exist
Remember being told you’re a “visual learner” or an “auditory learner”? Well, turns out that whole learning styles theory is pretty much bunk.
Common Learning Myths have been thoroughly debunked by modern educational research, and this is a big one. Studies consistently show that matching teaching methods to supposed learning styles doesn’t improve outcomes at all.
What actually matters is matching the teaching method to the content itself – you learn geography better with maps because geography is visual, not because you’re a “visual person.” It’s like trying to learn piano by reading about it versus actually playing keys. The activity should match what you’re trying to learn, not some made-up category about how your brain supposedly works.
