In this episode, Anna speaks with Marjorie Rosenberg about learning preferences. They unpack the terminology around learning preferences, address some criticisms of learning styles, and explore how teachers can avoid teaching only in their own preferred style. Marjorie shares simple, low-prep activities that cater to multiple learner types and offers strategies for discovering student preferences without extensive questionnaires.
