Abstract

This paper looks at the need for tertiary teachers to increase awareness of students' preferred learning styles. In doing this, it critiques the instruments that have been developed and the convergent nature of institutional formal education. It introduces a new instrument that avoids the worst effects of reductionism by being context specific and it poses some directions for future research.
