This research was designed to identify how vocational education and training practitioners viewed learning style differences between students and how they took account of those differences in designing and delivering teaching. It involved surveys, focus groups and case studies in five TAFE institutes and one professional network of public and private trainers. The research found that teachers have developed a range of personal methods of identifying individual and group learning styles and a range of techniques to respond to them.
