Critical Thinking Dispositions

This study aims to examine distance education students' learning styles and critical thinking dispositions. This cross sectional survey was conducted on 114 Turkish distance education students from various departments in a state university. The data of the study were collected through Grasha-Riechmann Student Learning Style Scale (GRSLSS) and California Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory (CCTDI). Cronbach Alpha coefficiencies of the scales were .76 for GRSLSS and .79 for CCTDI. To analyze the data, descriptive statistics (frequencies, percentages, means and standard deviations), t-test and one-way analysis of variance tests were used. The results indicated that the dependent learning style was the most preferred style and the avoidant learning style was the least preferred style. The further analysis regarding learning style indicated that female students perceived themselves more dependent than male students. The results also indicated that students in teacher training programs scored higher in independent and avoidant sub-scales, while students in arts and sciences programs scored higher in dependent, collaborative, competitive and participant sub-scales. The results manifested that students' critical thinking dispositions were at a low level, and they mostly had analyticity and open-mindedness dispositions. Female students were found to have more critical thinking dispositions than male students.

Attitudes toward blindness among education and theological students are examined in this article, specifically the differences in attitudes toward blindness between education and seminary student groups; between conservative and liberal student groups; between first- and third-year seminary student groups; and between the sexes. Subjects were 213 graduate education students at the University of Pittsburgh and 175 graduate theological students enrolled in six selected seminaries. The Disability Factor Scales-Blindness (DFS-B) and selected items from the Polyphasic Value Inventory (PVI) were utilized. The results obtained are: Graduate education students do not differ from graduate theological students in their overall attitudes toward blindness, but education students do react more unfavorably to Rejection of Intimacy dimension; conservative students react more unfavorably to blindness than do liberal students; and students in the two conservative seminaries have more unfavorable attitudes than those in the liberal seminary; third-year seminarians indicated more definite presence of Rejection of Intimacy and Distressed Identification dimensions than first-year seminarians; and female students show more favorable reactions to blindness than do male students.
