Career Ed Lounge is embedded in over eighty professional development portals serving the career and technical education community. Performance Groups in the Lounge are integrated with related learning opportunities offered on these portals. With a few exceptions, Performance Groups are also publicly available to any member of the Lounge to maximize peer-to-peer learning and performance outcomes.
In response to this topic I would say that research is somewhat mixed on the value of learning styles for the average learner, however I have spoked with professionals that can clearly identify the style of learning used through their entire educational experience. This would seem to suggest that there is a natural tendancy to use one or the other, though I doubt these individuals were as dependent on the teacher or instructor in the learning process as some would suggest.
