The learning style sceptics say there are no learning styles. This is squarely contrary to the idea of 'personality prostheses' advanced by Alan Dix. The idea is, just as we use a lever if we're too weak to move a rock, we use other tools to help out other aspects of our character. If we have a desk, we each set up our desk differently, to accommodate our personalities. People are quick to make moral judgements about our character - maybe too quick. We have to work with what we've got. And if that means a prosthesis, either to support our legs, our eyes, our character or our learning - so be it.
