The cognitive style field-dependent/field-independent (FD/FI) which represents the learners' typical mode of gaining, storing, processing and using information, accounts for considerable variations in achievement among learners. Accommodating this cognitive style construct in the instructional design process may narrow the differental learning gain between FD and FI learners. The purpose of this article is to review the literature on the cognitive style FD/FI and to suggest some implications for educational technologists in their efforts to address individual differences among learners during the instructional design process.
