Students' Conceptions of Learning in Different Educational Contexts.

Eklund-Myrskog, Gunilla

Higher Education, v35 n3 p299-316 Apr 1998

Comparison of the conceptions of learning of 60 nursing students and 54 auto mechanic students, elicited in individual interviews at program beginning and end, found qualitative differences and similarities. Differences within an educational program were fewer than those among students participating in different programs. Among students within a program, similar developmental trends were identified.
