"The iPod can support the three learning styles."


This really caught me off guard in a weird way. I had heard about using the iPad to supplement learning and further the impact of what kids are being taught. However, I never really thought of it as addressing all three of the learning styles at once.  This makes it an even more valuable piece of technology that should not be glossed over as another expensive toy.
As to my reaction to the three learning styles that people have, I have a good bit of knowledge on the subject, in fact I may have alluded to it in my previous posting. Knowing what kind of learner each of the kids are and trying to accommodate to their specific style will vastly improve the outcome of the results one is looking for.  This is crucial information that no teacher should be without, they should also realize that kids could be more than one type or that some kids may be very weak in all the areas. It is our job as instructors and mentors to the future generation to compensate for that.
