Abstract of our Project:

The Purpose of our project is to research all the many effects different learning styles have on people. By finding out about the different learning styles, we could make an appropriate assumption of how our research could help different teachers in different schools. The Modality Test is the main part of the process of that provided our information during the project. The test rates an individual on which learning style he or she has. In the further research of our project the idea is to test other people. Two main ethnic groups are the main basis on our project, they are Native Americans and Hispanics. The reason why we picked these two specific ethnic groups, is because they are the majority of our school and community.

In conclusion we are trying to solve this problem by, letting the teachers know what kind of students that they have in class and that in turn will help the teachers alter their teaching patterns. This hopefully will help the students learn at their own rate and will help them excel at learning new material. This will help the students get to know the material that they will need in the real world. It will be some time before all of the schools can do this with their students and teachers.
