With the expansion of business education and an increasing focus on diversity, it is imperative that business schools address students' diverse learning styles. A deeper understanding of how differently each student learns may provide useful insights into "teaching-learning" processes that need to be designed for effective learning.…

The characteristic differences of participants affect their reactions to various gamification elements. Thus, it is critical to reveal the impact different type of students on gamified interventions, and the relation of personality features and gamified learning process. In this study, it is compered the motivation and perception of participants…

Language teachers cannot ignore the role of technology in young language learners' lives to engage and motivate them. Therefore, the current research investigated the mediating effect of students' learning and cognitive styles on the relationship between their emotions and situational motivation. 1089 respondents were selected from different…

Proponents of learning styles-based instruction recommend using learning styles inventories in school settings. One such inventory is Kolb's Learning Style Inventory (LSI). Critics, on the other hand, discourage the use of such questionnaires because of some challenges associated with learning styles-based instruction. Despite these challenges,…

Much of formal higher education research on learning experiences has focused on processing strategies and outcomes, however, less attention has been paid to their precursors. This study employed Biggs' 3P model to examine the contributions of learning conceptions (as part of learning patterns (LPs) research; construction of knowledge, intake of…

Learning process varies from student to student. In a related research, it is argued that one of the basic elements for this variation is due to student's distinct learning styles. Planning learning situations based on the knowledge of learners' learning styles can be more effective and efficient. With the learning-teaching process designed in…

This statistical study of 272 dancers, ages 18-96, using Kolb Learning Styles Inventory 4.0, identifies dominant learning cycles, learning styles, and learning style flexibility of the dance participants, and subgroups of notation users, and then compares these results to existing results from other disciplines. The research reveals the depth and…

This study investigates whether differences in learning styles exist between students in online and face-to-face (FTF) sections of political science courses taught by three instructors. Some studies suggest that student preferences regarding online or FTF formats are influenced by their preferred modes of learning. Independent learners, for…

This article introduces ways in which movement can enhance one's understanding of how to learn using Experiential Learning Theory (ELT) concepts of the Learning Cycle, Learning Styles, and Learning Flexibility. The theoretical correspondence between the dialectic dimensions of the Learning Cycle and the dimensions of the Laban Movement Analysis…

Building upon existing experiential learning processes, this paper presents an extended experimental learning framework for creating Corporate Engagement Programs (CEPs). The research answers the AACSB call for "engagement programs" which leverage passive and active pedagogies to connect in-class-lessons to engagement activities with…

The purpose of the current study is to investigate the learning process, which is enriched by using various teaching methods in the context of mathematical reasoning from the perspectives of seventh grade students and their mathematics teacher. In order to have an in-depth study, a qualitative research approach was preferred. This research was…

We investigated whether participation in a university-based, service learning mentoring program could affect college students' learning about social inequities and the effects of poverty. The program we examined combined four critical components: (a) Mentor training, (b) mentoring youth on-site in their high-poverty environments, (c) mentors'…

The aim of the study was to investigate the role of regulation and processing strategies in understanding science text. A total of 91 student teachers answered open-ended questions concerning photosynthesis before and after reading either a traditional or a refutational science text. After this, they also answered parts of the Inventory of…

Nursing education is experiencing a transition in how students are exposed to clinical situations. Technology, specifically human patient computer simulation, is replacing human exposure in clinical education (Nehring, 2010b). Kaakinen and Arwood (2009) discuss the need to apply learning theories to instructional designs involving simulation for…

Recent research on the learning process has shown that students tend to learn in different ways and that they prefer to use different teaching resources as well. Many researchers agree on the fact that learning materials shouldn't just reflect of the teacher's style, but should be designed for all kinds of students and all kind of learning styles.…
