ABSTRACT
Learning styles impact on every aspect of our lives: how we gather information, how we use it and how we link it together are all determined by our preferred learning style. Despite this, many of us still fail to acknowledge how important they are and assume that knowledge comes with age. Understanding the importance and impact of learning styles may help to alleviate the disappointment many have with their learning. Understanding flexible learning styles combined with understanding efficient learning strategies is important and enabling this to happen with the support of information learning technologies where appropriate should help to produce a learning experience that allows for a variety of styles. Achieving this requires all those involved to be working together and communicating efficiently.
