One of the key aims of ELSIN is to internationally promote understanding of individual style differences through dissemination of key research in learning styles. The six papers demonstrate how, in different higher education contexts, practitioners are engaged in learner-centred approaches by using cognitive and learning styles and approaches to studying models to enhance the learning experiences of their students in education and training. Such diverse higher education contexts include: business and management education in Belgium (Cools); teacher education in Belgium (Vanthournout, Donche, Gijbels and Van Petegem); undergraduate Spanish studies in the UK (Fernández-Toro); undergraduate hospitality management in Switzerland (Charlesworth); undergraduate Business Economics and Psychology in Denmark (Nielsen, Hvas and Kjaergaard); and undergraduate and postgraduate study in Health and Social Science in Scotland (Duffy and Rimmer).enPeople Management & LeadershipThe use and understanding of style differences to enhance learningReflecting Education487931162393786
