The article "Learning and Teaching Styles in Engineering Education" by Richard M. Felder and Linda K. Silverman explores the mismatch between the learning styles of engineering students and the teaching styles of engineering professors, which often leads to poor student performance, frustration, and a loss of potential excellent engineers. The authors propose a model of learning styles and teaching styles, categorizing students into different types based on their preferred methods of receiving and processing information. These categories include sensing/intuition, visual/auditory, inductive/deductive, active/reflective, and sequential/global learners. The article also suggests specific teaching techniques to address these learning styles, such as using visual aids, incorporating both auditory and visual modalities, following the scientific method, and providing opportunities for active participation. The goal is to create an optimal learning environment that accommodates the diverse needs of students, thereby enhancing their educational experience and future success.The article "Learning and Teaching Styles in Engineering Education" by Richard M.
