The fine line between ADHD and Kinesthetic Learning Syles

Technology can support Kinesthetic learners by creating a more hands on experience. When a kinesthetic learner is moving the are more likely to absorb what thet are learning. The use of technology allows them to be more focus and cause less disruptive behaviors. “Any type of learner can be successful. But of all the learning styles, kinesthetic learners are least likely to receive appropriate teaching.” (Ricki Linksman) They lack the hands on experience in today’s style of teaching. Technology allows the interaction that would require one on one teaching for this learner to be productive. .
