Learning styles - a fake?

One of the participants of the workshop provided a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIv9rz2NTUk
Here Professor Dan Willingham claims that, though learning styles really exist, they hardly help teaching, because what we are realy to pass on to our students is meaning, not images or voice. But imagine reading a book to kids. I am sure it will be more engaging and memorable if you support it with images and the change of voice. And even better if they act the story out themselves. In my opinion, and from my experience, the more channels you engage, the better. It is not the question of adapting to each learner's learning style, it is the matter of providing tasks and activities that involve logic and creativity, visuals and audio, movement and relaxation.
