The aim of this study is to investigate high school students’ geometry course achievement according to their learning styles. 11th grade students in İzmir constitute the general universe of the research and the sampling of the research comprises of 11th grade students in Karabağlar district. Sampling of the research consists of total 50 high school students, determined by using appropriate sampling method. 60% (n=30) of these students are female and 40% (n=20) of them are males. Both quantitative and qualitative research methods were used depending on the main and sub-questions of the research. Kolb’s Learning Style Inventory was used in order to determine the learning styles of the students. As a result of the research, it was found out that most of the students who have diverging learning style were female students (77.8%), most of the students who have accommodating learning style were female students (75%), the number of male students (47.4%) and the number of female students (52.6%) who have assimilating learning styles are close and it was found out that, among the students who have converging learning style, female students (55.6%) were more than males. It was determined that there was no statistically significant difference between the geometry achievement scores according to learning styles and that the students' geometric achievement means were statistically significant according to gender. It was proposed that taking learning styles into account in the regulation of education environments can help to increase achievement.

study aims to describe the creativity skills of Junior High School students in solving cube and cuboid problems based on student learning styles. The research instruments used were creativity skills tests, a learning style questionnaire, and interviews. As many as three seventh graders who have different learning styles: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic, working on a cuboid/cube problem. Their performances on such a problem were then assessed regarding fluency, flexibility, and novelty. The results showed that the visual learner produced two different solutions with two different methods/strategies and completed his solution by providing a lot of illustrations/representations although they could not be categorized as novelty solutions. Meanwhile, the auditory learner provided two different solutions with two different methods/strategies. More particularly, he determined the appropriate size and found a suitable size by using a three-variable linear equation for the cube and cuboid problem although he produced some mistakes and uncompleted on the work procedures. Lastly, the kinesthetic learner provided two different solutions with one method/strategy, such as by directly determining the various correct sizes for the problem-solution although the answers could not be categorized novelty for creativity skill. Further studies are suggested to involve more participants to get a wider insight on the students’ creativity for different learning styles.

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether there is a predictive effect of learning styles on critical thinking dispositions of high school students. Thus, it aims to determine how much of learning styles used by high school students depending on the nature of learning settings explain the variance in critical thinking dispositions. The sample of the study is composed of 271 high school students chosen randomly from three high schools. The data was collected using Critical Thinking Dispositions Scale developed by reseachers and Learning Styles Scale developed by Reichmann-Grasha and adapted into Turkish language by Koçak (2007). The findings indicated that while high school students learning styles (systematically study, dependence on teachers and cooperation in classroom) predict significantly causal thinking, courisity and openmindedness dispositions, competitive learning style does not predict significantly the critical thinking dispositions.

Motivation is one of the most important factors for academic learning and achievement across childhood through adolescence, according to Elliot and Dweck, (2005). Using descriptive qualitative method, this study sought to establish information to determine the influence of teachers on the learning motivation of senior high school students in Siniloan Integrated National High School, Laguna, Philippines, the researcher used purposive random sampling and got 239 senior high school students as respondents. The study finds that (52.30) or 125 of the students are male where (35.98) or 86 are age 16 years old, (99.58) or 238 are also single belonging to an entire family. Two hundred thirty-three or (97.49) of the students also claimed to like the Technical Vocational Livelihood Strand and 69 or (28.87) are taking Food Processing as their field of specialization. 141 or (59.00) of the students also depicted that it was their parents that influenced them to take the TVL strand. It was found in this study that the teachers influence the students greater in terms of their learning styles and it was found that the senior high school students are aural or auditory learners. In view of the forgoing findings, it confirms that senior high school students from the Siniloan Integrated National High School under the TVL strand showed intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. The study also stated that the intrinsic and extrinsic motivation is significantly influenced bythe teachers method of motivation. The researcher recommends that the teachers continuously improve and use different methods of motivating students and to teach and allow the students to practice learning styles that would help the students to learn better and encourage students to use solitary learning style or become intrapersonal learners to help them become successful in the futureconcluded that solitary learning style is likely to influence a students academic performance because students that are intrapersonal tend to be more organized, focused andaccordance with the method of motivation used.

Cognitive Competency

Learning styles are a combination of absorbing, regulating, and processing learning by students. There are three types of learning styles namely visual learning styles, auditory and kinesthetic. Based on the results of observations that the authors did at senior high school 7 Padang, it was revealed that the teacher still did not practice the relationship between the learning styles of students in their learning. This can lead to the learning styles are not synchronized with learning models, methods and media applied by teachers so that students' cognitive competency become low. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between learning styles and cognitive competency of students. This research is a descriptive research. This study uses a correlation study approach, namely the independent variable in the form of student learning styles and the dependent variable in the form of cognitive competency of students.To find out the relationship between variables stated with correlation coefficients used the Spearman-Rank correlation formula.Based on the research that has been done, it is found that the relationship between learning styles and cognitive competency of students does not mean and the correlation value is in the category of very weak to moderate. In the visual learning style for the second daily test there is a significant relationship and the correlation value is 0.75 with a strong correlation category. The conclusion of this study is that there is no significant relationship between learning styles and learners' cognitive competency.

Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) study and the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) is one of the principles in curriculum development in Indonesia. Judging from the results of the PISA study, the achievements obtained by Indonesian children especially in the aspects of mathematical literacy have not been satisfactory. The low achievement is inseparable from the learning process in schools, one of which students are not accustomed to solving questions with characteristics such as the PISA context. In addition, the way students absorb information also determines how learning achievements will be obtained by students. The way students learn is often referred to as a learning style. This indicates that the mathematics literacy of junior high school students in Indonesia is so weak that they still have difficulty in solving PISA questions. As a result, many mistakes were made by junior high school students when faced with PISA questions. The purpose of this study was to describe the errors of students with visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles in solving space and shape content PISA questions. Students' errors were analyzed from the adaptation of Newman's error analysis model namely comprehension, transformation, proccess skills, and encoding. This type of research is qualitative descriptive. Data collection techniques that be used are tests and interviews. The results showed that students with visual learning styles tend to make mistakes in the transformation step. Whereas students with auditory learning styles tend to make mistakes in understanding and transformation steps, and students with kinesthetic learning styles make mistakes in the steps of understanding, transformation, and process skills. This shows that students who have kinesthetic learning styles do not have a tendency in one type of error. Keywords: Error analysis, PISA, VAK Learning Style

AbstractThis study investigates Chinese elementary, middle, and high school students’ L2 perceptual learning styles, imagination, ideal L2 self, and motivated L2 behavior. A perceptual learning style and L2 learning motivation questionnaire was administered to 1,667 students from elementary to high school. Statistical results revealed that Chinese elementary, middle, and high school students were more in favor of a visual learning style in comparison to their auditory and kinesthetic learning styles. This visually oriented style was significantly correlated with their ideal L2 self and motivated L2 behavior. The sequential regression analysis results indicated that the ideal L2 self and visual learning style were the most meaningful predictors for Chinese students’ motivated L2 behavior. This study suggests that teachers need to help students create and maintain their ideal L2 self and facilitate their L2 learning motivation by providing more adequate visual teaching materials.
