    Abstract

    This paper presents evidence based outcomes for learners in third level education from the Continue IT: Leaning Styles Theme. The project is innovative in that it is a mainstream project that originated from previous projects and research into including students with disabilities and learning difficulties into higher education. This project, like the past projects it is built on, took interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approaches to the development of inclusive solutions for learners with disabilities. The models of identification and support designed as a result of these previous projects have now been used to enhance learner outcomes overall in terms of retention, attendance, performance and achievement.
