Merril learning style notes

l'm making these notes on my palm which always feels a bit odd. I just read Merrils article on learning styles. For me the key message was that the instructional design methods comes first and then that is customized for different learning styles and l would then also say that good instruction should cater for multipe learning styles. Merril does seem to down play learning styles but his position is that the first princples of instruction are more important. This is leading me to ask where does a student centered approach come into this eg custimised learning experiences for individual students. ?
