This study investigates the influence of motivation and learning styles on the achievement of tertiary education Mathematics' students. A randomly selected of 140 undergraduates students in an university have participated in this study. Students were asked to complete a questionnaire on the different aspects of the motivation (extrinsic motivation and intrinsic motivation) and learning styles (participation, collaboration, independence, and competition) towards their respective academic performance. Grasha's Model is applied in this research and there are six aspects of learning styles for this model. However, the learning style of avoidance and dependent are not suitable for university students. Therefore, only four aspects of learning styles are used. Correlation analysis is use to examine the relationship between the learning styles and motivation on students' achievement. The findings reveal that the extrinsic motivation of students exceeds intrinsic motivation. Also, learning styles, encompassing participation, collaboration, and independence significantly influence students' performance relative to the competition. The results also indicate that both motivation and learning styles are significantly different in the context of performance in Mathematics for the undergraduates.

The study employed a mixed method research design to investigate the self-perceived levels of learners’ autonomy at the institution where the researcher works. The study also explores the teachers’ support in fostering students’ autonomy. In addition, the study attempts to determine the relationship between genders, learning styles and the learners’ levels of autonomy. The main findings reveal that the level of learners’ autonomy where the study was conducted was at medium level (M = 2.66 out of 5.0 scale). In terms of the students’ perception of their teachers’ roles in fostering students’ autonomy, the finding of the current study reveals that it was quite supportive (M = 3.29 out of 5.0 scale). The finding also indicated that the difference in level of autonomy is not significant between male and female students (M = 2.667 for male compared with M = 2.668 for female students). Finally, the result showed that there a statistically significant difference in the levels of autonomy between students with different learning styles. To be specifically, the students who prefer kinesthetic learning style possess the highest level of autonomy (M = 2.75) compared with M = 2.60 and 2.59 for visual and individual learning style students. M=2.72; M=269 and M=2.62 are the level of autonomy for group, tactile and auditory students respectively.

Demographic factors are factors that determine the relationship between motivation, learning style and learning discipline on the academic achievement of Islamic education. Indeed, this study was carried out to determine the relationship between the motivation, learning style and learning discipline to the academic achievement of Islamic education. A total of 260 fourth graders become study samples. The study shows that male genitalia have a modest impression (moderator) that is significant in the relationship between motivation and academic achievement, but female females are not and the conclusion that females have a full moderation in this relationship. Both jantina (male and female) do not have a significant moderating impression in the relationship between motivation and learning discipline and the conclusion that jantina does not have a simple moderation effect in this relationship. Furthermore, the two jantinas (male and female) have a significant moderating impression in the relationship between learning styles and academic achievement and the conclusion is that Jantina has a partial mediation in this relationship. Whenever, female marriage is a significant moderator in the relationship between the discipline of learning and academic achievement, but male sex is not and the conclusion that the female has a full moderation in this relationship.

A computerized problem-solving task was employed to study the relationships among problem-solving behaviors and learning styles. College students made choices to find their way home in a simulated “lost in the woods” task and wrote their. reasons at each choice point. Time to read relevant information and time to make decisions were measured by the computer clock. These variables were correlated with learning style variables from Schmeck's (1977) questionnaire. The findings indicated that subjects who perceived themselves as competent learners take more time on the problem-solving task, use more information and make fewer wrong choices.

Background Business simulation as an instructional tool helps in developing integrative thinking and decision making skills. It is being taught to audiences who differ considerably in age, work experience (learner characteristics) and learning styles. The use of simulations is likely to grow further with advancements in internet technology and the fact that simulations are very amenable to remote modes of instruction. Aim This study aims to assess how learner characteristics and learning styles impact business simulation performance. It further assesses the combined effect of learner characteristics and learning styles on performance in business simulations, we specifically consider the manner in which learning styles moderate the impact of learner characteristics (age) on simulation performance. Method The study was conducted with 605 students of full time MBA and executive MBA programs with age group varying from 21 years to 53 years. They were taught using the same business simulation by CAPSIM. The learning styles were measured using Felder-Solomon’s instrument ‘Index of learning style’. Regression analysis was conducted with predictor variables of learner characteristics and learning styles and outcome variable of simulation performance. The moderating effect of specific learning styles on learner characteristics was identified. Results The findings indicate that age is a significant predictor of simulation performance (younger, tech savvy students do better). Also, the use of reflective learning style enables better performance in business simulations. Older students are able to draw on experience and benefit more from reflective learning, for business simulations which involve integration across functions. Conclusion The study enhances our conceptual understanding of the factors enabling performance in business simulations and provides specific direction on how instructors must adapt facilitation approaches for different age groups of participants. Reflection is important for learning with business simulations; hence, the reflective learning style should be encouraged particularly among older students.
