Therefore, teachers who are highly interested in brain research are more susceptible to neuromyths
That sucks :(
“The implicit assumption seems to be that, because different regions of the cortex have crucial roles in visual, auditory, and sensory processing, learners should receive information in visual, auditory or kinaesthetic forms according to which part of their brain works better” (Howard-Jones, 2014, pp. 817-818). The brain’s interconnectivity undermines this assumption, and research done on learning styles have failed to support this approach to teaching.
This has been a major issue I have run into while teaching. Some people are so focused on their "learning style" that they will not put method into any other method. I have run into students that will put effort into actively not listening, because "that's just not how I learn"
