In active learning, students engaged in several activities that can stimulate them to think and interact with the information presented, so as to create their own understanding and information through reflection. Students who are able to understand learning well will be satisfied with the learning process that occurs. Learning satisfaction can be determined by the teaching and learning process conducted by lecturers, but it can also be seen from the behavior of students in receiving learning in class. This study aims to determine the effect of active learning on student satisfaction with learning style as a moderating variable. This type of research used in quantitative explanatory research using path analysis. 73 students of accounting education courses in 2016 were examined in this study. In this study, the sample was taken by using a random sampling technique. Based on the results of the study indicate that there is a direct effect of active learning variables on student satisfaction and there is an indirect effect of active learning variables on student learning decisions through learning styles. This means that the influence of learning styles possessed by students is able to determine the amount of student learning satisfaction in class.

The purpose of the study is to explore the preferred language learning styles of the undergraduate students based on their gender. In Pakistan, the traditional lecture method is commonly used at the undergraduate level which is teacher centred (Hussain, Azeem & Shakoor, 2011), not accounting for the learner and learning style differences. The difference in learning styles varies from one individual to another; thus, influencing the overall language learning process and performance (Manochehr, 2006). The present study used a mixed method approach, with Kolb’s learning style model (1986) as the basis of the theoretical framework to determine individual learning styles. The sample was selected through purposive sampling technique and comprised of 60 undergraduate students and 10 teachers who were teaching English to these students. Data was collected from the students studying English at the undergraduate level and their teachers by using survey questionnaire and semi structured interviews respectively and was analysed in the form of descriptive statistics. The findings of the study confirmed that gender differences had a direct influence on the learning style preferences of the students. Moreover, both male and female students showed a tendency for Active Experimentation (AE) style of learning, indicating that they want to be actively engaged in their own learning process, instead of merely listening to the lectures being delivered in the traditional method. In addition, although the findings indicated that the teachers were aware of the differences in the learning styles based on gender, but their teaching practices did not account for the preferred learning styles of the students. These results can be further utilized to improve the teaching and learning styles for the students at the undergraduate students.

<p>Writing is one of the English skills. Teaching writing is a process to improve students' ability to write in English correctly. Descriptive text is text used to describe a person, place or object. The difficulty experienced in teaching writing through descriptive text is the lack of attention of students towards the explanation given by the teacher. To overcome this, researchers applied VARK learning style to teaching writing. VARK learning style is a learning style using all five senses to get information or knowledge in the teaching and learning process. This study aims to explain the application of VARK learning style in teaching writing through descriptive text. The procedures for applying VARK learning style in teaching writing through descriptive text are: (1) The teacher explains the meaning, patterns and characteristics of descriptive text languages, (2) The teacher asks students to make small groups, (3) The teacher gives examples of descriptive texts, ( 4) The teacher gives questions in the form of pictures to students and asks to make descriptive texts, (5) The teacher asks students to show the results of students' work in front of the class. Based on this research, it can be seen that the advantages of VARK learning style is that it can increase student learning interest, student enthusiasm and reciprocity between teacher and students.</p>

Covid-19 is a highly contagious virus and spreads very quickly throughout the world. This has a broad impact on all segments of social life, including education. Responding to this, the Indonesian government temporarily eliminates the teaching and learning process in schools and conducts learning from home. Educators are required to be able to provide instruction to students in accordance with this situation and condition faced. Therefore, it is important for teachers to understand the learning styles of their students as an orientation for determining appropriate learning media. This study explores the learning styles of students at Madrasah Aliyah Negeri 1 Semarang and discovers the most suitable learning media in accordance with the students’ learning styles. The results showed that visual learning style was the most preferred so instructional videos were found as the most appropriate teaching media.

The purpose of this study was to determine: (1) the influence of the value clarification technique (VCT) learning model on student learning result. (2) Knowing the influence of learning styles on student learning result. (3) Knowing the interaction between learning models and learning styles on student learning result.   The population of this study were students of class VIII MTs Al-Hasanah Tanjung Leidong Labuhan Batu Utara consisting of three classes. The sample chosen for the class with the VCT learning model was class VIII-3 with 30 students, while students who were taught using the expository model were 32 students. The cluster random sampling technique is influenced by analysis of variance at a significant level (α = 0.05) followed by Scheffe. The results of this study are: (1) the average value of students taught with the VCT learning model (= 33.6) is higher than students taught with the expository learning model (= 24.68) with Fcount 0.0023 < Ftable 3,988. (2) The average value of learning outcomes Akidah Akhlak with visual learning styles (= 27.5), auditory (= 29.56) and kinesthetic (= 28.26) with Fcount = 0.068 < Ftable = 3,988. (3) There is an interaction between learning models and learning styles on students' learning outcomes Akidah Akhlak with Fcount 28.96 < Ftable 3,988. Based on the data analysis, it can be concluded that students with visual and auditory characteristics, the appropriate learning model is the VCT, while students with the kinesthetic learning style are expository. The implication is that teachers must be trained in how to understand student learning styles. Thus it is suggested that in planning the learning process the characteristics of students must be considered.
