Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 50 Years (Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. People who have been diagnosed with Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI).
  2. People who are able to understand and sign an informed consent form.
  3. People who have no other known neurological disorder (e.g. aphasia, stroke).
  4. All participants must be 18-50 years old.
  5. Be able to speak and understand English, and
  6. Have use of a computer (Mac or Windows) and internet (www) access.

CLSI - Known

CLSI - Unknown

Arm Description

Participants will be assigned to a specific learning group via the Canfield Learning Style Inventory (CLSI).

Participants will be assigned to a traditional learning group (Control).

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Learning Effectiveness
This study will explore the use of a cognitive rehabilitation approach as suggested by Gardner's Multiple Intelligences for its potential application to online course design for brain injured patients/students. It involves designing instruction for a science unit based on four of Canfield's learning styles.
