Abstract

This manuscript describes the impact of traditional auditory and visual learning as opposed to tactual and/or kinesthetic learning on the achievement of primary-through adult-students' grades in varied subjects. Its findings suggest that the perceptual strengths of low-achievers and Special Education students appear to be essentially tactual, kinesthetic, or a combination of these two and visual inclinations, and that traditional lectures and discussions may be the most important reason that certain poor learners do not do well in conventional schools.
