Abstract This study aims to analyze the kinesthetic learning activities of students on Compton and photoelectric effects. This further involved a qualitative descriptive study, where students of class XII Mathematical and Natural Science 2, State of Madrasah Aliyah in Palu Region (Central of Sulawesi, Indonesia), were the sample population examined, in the odd semester of 2018/2019 academic session. Data was obtained through observation of learning activities, concept understanding tests, interviews and learning style identification questionnaires. The selection of respondents was based on the level of understanding of students’ concept categories. The results of the study showed that students perform kinesthetic learning activities very well, as seen from their endeavors in following the lessons and the results of theoretical understanding assessments, which were observed to be in the high category. Furthermore, the interview evaluated that the students are happy with the kinesthetic learning method carried out as it promoted their understanding and recollection of the content of the material and questionnaires indicate that students have visual, auditory and kinesthetic learning styles. From the performance of Compton and the photoelectric effect, it was shown that students playing as electrodes and electrons (kinesthetic learning style) possess high understanding of the concept in the kinesthetic learning model.

This study aims to determine how students 'kinesthetic learning activities on understanding the DSSC work principles and to determine the effect of students' kinesthetic activity processes on understanding the working principles of DSSC at Tadulako University. This research was a descriptive-qualitative study where all data is collected based on facts obtained in the field to produce descriptive data in the form of written or spoken words from the people being observed. Respondents involved in this study were 42 students. Data obtained through activity activities, interview comprehension tests, and questionnaires. The results showed that students had been learning kinesthetic activities very well, through kinesthetic activities students became more active students and felt happy. This was reinforced by active discussion, test results where most students got good grades, and interviews. It can be seen that although students' learning styles differ if the kinesthetic learning style was applied, students can easily remember and understand if they do this directly, this was reinforced by a questionnaire. The information obtained by kinesthetic learning styles complements learning styles in addition to kinesthetic.

The level of one's accounting understanding can be influenced by emotional intelligence, visual learning styles, auditory learning styles and kinesthetic learning styles that exist within students. The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of emotional intelligence, visual learning style, auditory learning style and kinesthetic learning styles on the level of understanding of accounting. The research was conducted at the Faculty of Economics and Business, Udayana University. Respondents were 171 students majoring in accounting undergraduate program 2015 were determined by probability sampling method. Data were analyzed by multiple linear regression. Based on the results of the analysis, emotional intelligence has a positive effect on the level of accounting understanding. This shows that the better the emotional intelligence possessed by students causes the level of understanding of accounting increases. Visual learning style, auditory learning style and kinesthetic learning style have a positive effect on the level of understanding of accounting, this shows the better the learning style, the higher the level of understanding of accounting. The implications of the results of this study support cognitive theory which states the level of understanding of accounting is influenced by internal factors, namely emotional intelligence, visual learning style, auditory learning style and kinesthetic learning style.

A learning style is an issue related to learners. In one way or the other, learning style could assist learners in their learning activities if students ignore their learning styles, it may influence their effort in understanding teaching materials. To overcome these problems, a model for reliable automatic learning style detection is needed. Currently, there are two approaches in detecting learning styles: data driven and literature based. Learners, especially those with changing learning styles, have difficulties in adopting these two approach since they are not adaptive, dynamic and responsive (ADR). To solve the above problems, a model using agent learning approach is proposes. Agent learning involves performing activities in four phases, i.e. initialization, learning, matching and, recommendations to decide the learning styles the students use. The proposed system will provide instructional materials that match the learning style that has been detected. The automatics detection process is performed by combining the data-driven and literature-based approaches. We propose an evaluation model agent learning system to ensure the model is working properly.

Habraken points out that the architectural studio failed to bring students to basic questions in the architecture of everyday environments. Till criticizes that in a studio, it is only the professional value represented by the teachers that prevails. To investigate the reasons of the allegation, this paper introduces a learning model defined by David A. Kolb, in which a learning process consists of two dimensional movements: i.e., prehension (concrete experiences vs. abstract conceptualization) and transformation (reflection and experiment). The paper then inquires into Schön's observation in the studio learning mode characterized as reflection-in-action. It is found that this studio is mainly dealing with the transformation dimension, and prehension dimension is either suppressed or represented by the teacher's experiences and conceptions. The paper discovers that the cause of problems raised by Habraken and Till is the inherent lack of substance in the prehension dimension. The paper assesses a studio programme in which the basic questions of built environment were systematically introduced. It analyzes the students' reactions and performance in line with students' learning styles found using Kolb's Learning Style Inventory (LSI). It suggests that the students' learning activities are more diversified than what Schön could perceive. There is a possibility to adapt students' personal experience and abstract conceptualization which may play into the studio. By enhancing diversity of learning styles rather than letting one's learning style (reflection-in-action) prevail, the studio may become a platform in which students may learn from each other.

Higher education institutions and corporations are increasingly exploring new pedagogical methods to align with learning styles of incoming students and employees, who are amazingly adept at using Web 2.0 applications. This chapter explores the use of virtual worlds, in particular that of Second Life, in educational activities by organizations such as higher education institutions or corporations. We begin by introducing virtual worlds with a particular focus on Second Life. We then provide an overview of the benefits of this environment for learning activities before presenting a set of potential learning activities that can be conducted within Second Life. We then discuss an in-depth example of 3D teaming-one learning activity within Second Life conducted by the authors. After a discussion of implementation challenges, we then present areas for future research.
