Abstract | Having knowledge about students' learning styles allows the teachers to improve their expertise in order to supply suitable support and challenge in learning environments. This paper presents the initial results of a research project that aims at investigating the relationship between university students' learning styles and disciplinary fields. This study is being conducted at the University of Aveiro, in Portugal. The Learning Styles Inventory was administered to a sample of 186 students from different academic backgrounds. The overall results do not confirm the association, previously established by Kolb, between learning styles and disciplines. Actually, almost all students possess the accommodating style as dominant. Implications of these findings are discussed and topics for further research are proposed. [For complete volume, see ED567040.] (ERIC). |
