Paper Details

This paper reviews different studies to understand how a person’s learning style is connected to their way of living (lifestyle), and how both together affect their learning and education. It looks at global theories as well as studies done in India to explain how things like family background, culture, financial status, access to technology, and daily habits affect the way people prefer to learn. The study finds that lifestyle factors—such as how time is managed, the environment at home, food habits, and social life—can influence whether someone learns better by seeing, hearing, reading/writing, or doing activity. A person’s learning style can affect their daily lifestyle, especially how they study or use information. The paper suggests that teachers, school leaders, and education planners should understand this connection. Instead of using the same teaching method for everyone, schools should use flexible and suitable methods for different learners. It also says that parents and communities should be more aware of this. Some useful steps include checking learning styles carefully, helping students understand how they learn, using low-cost technology, and creating learning spaces that suit different needs—according to the goals of the National Education Policy (NEP)2020.
