This study investigates the correlation between learning styles (Visual, Auditory, Reading/Writing, and Kinesthetic [VARK]) and information processing patterns (Parallel, Sequential, Top-down, and Bottom-up) among Senior High School Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) learners, specifically in the context of Biology. The…

It has been controversial whether the matching of learning styles with teaching environment has improved the teaching effects. This paper constructs matching modes by choosing Sternberg's three learning styles (liberal leaning, internal scope and global level) and adopts curriculum comprehensiveness and instructing modes. The research, based on…

The aim of this study is to examine whether the structural model that Sahin and Ates (2020) put forward about the relationship among students' scientific literacy levels, logical thinking ability, cognitive styles, mental capacity, and mental rotation ability differ in terms of gender. A causal-comparative model approach was used in this study.…

This study explored how thinking styles changed among hearing-impaired students from the art and design academic discipline. Within the duration of one academic year, the Thinking Styles Inventory-Revised II was administered twice to 129 first-year and 127 second-year hearing-impaired students. Results showed that students with hearing impairment…

Data was collected by test and observation. It is processed by ANCOVA and different test (t-test). (1) The result showed that all learning system…

This study starts from the observation that current empirical research on students' processing strategies in higher education has mainly focused on the use of self-report instruments to measure students' general preferences towards processing strategies. In contrast, there is a rather limited use of more direct and online observation techniques to…

The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between the language learning strategies of freshman students and their learning styles. This study is a descriptive research and employs a relational screening model. Participants of the study were 328 freshman students majoring in different fields at Necmettin Erbakan University Ahmet…

One of the facets of geographic literacy is the ability to think in a structured way about geographic relationships. Geospatial technologies offer many opportunities to stimulate students' geographic relational thinking. The question is: How can these opportunities be effectuated? This paper discusses the results of a process-oriented experiment…

This study investigates problem-solving difficulties of novices in a classroom setting, using a German instructional tool, the Fischertechnik kit of approximately 400 parts. In order to analyse the students' thinking processes as they solved the problems, verbal protocol analysis (VPA) was used to record the students'' thinking processes and…

This study investigated the effects of visual cues in multiple external representations (MER) environment on the learning performance of novices' program comprehension. Program codes and flowchart diagrams were used as dual representations in multimedia environment to deliver lessons on C-Programming. 17 field independent participants and 16 field…

This study examined school factors related to the learning style preferences of gifted Korean American students. The "Learning Styles Inventory-III" ("LSI"; Renzulli, Rizza, & Smith, 2002) and the "Ethnic Orientation Scale" ("EOS") were administered to 407 Korean American students in 30 schools. A…

The study compared ten hyperactive learning disabled (HLD) children and 10 nonhyperactive learning disabled (NHLD) children with normal children. Results indicated that both HLD and NHLD third and fourth grade children process information significantly less efficiently than nonLD children. HLD children could be differentiated from NHLD children on…

In today's knowledge economy, technology is utilized more than ever to deliver instructional material to the learner. Nonetheless, information may not always be presented in a manner that maximizes the learning experience, resulting in a negative impact on learning outcomes. Drawing on the Task-Technology Fit model, a research framework was…

Explored the meaning of curricular differentiation for 11 gifted elementary school students by examining responses to open-ended activities. Participants' responses differed from typical students. Differentiation occurred by participants responding in more depth, with higher level skills, and in ways that were guided by their learning styles. (CR)

Learning style preferences of 1,554 students (ages 8-17) identified as gifted and nongifted were measured. Gifted students displayed a stronger preference for imaginative styles, while nongifted children displayed a stronger preference for practical styles. Compared with gifted boys, gifted girls were more likely to prefer imaginative styles.…
