Student Learning Styles

In an era of increased accountability in assessing student learning outcomes, greater emphasis has been focused on factors that influence student learning. In this paper we examine the impact of instructional methods and information technology on student learning styles, all critical factors affecting student learning. A research framework that suggests the relationship of instructional processes and information technology to learning styles is proposed. Using the framework, pre-and post-tests based on the Grasha-Riechmann Student Learning Styles Scales were used to assess changes in student learning styles over the course of a semester in three college-level courses. Through specific instructional intervention coupled with collaborative projects and the use of course-management software, the results of the assessments showed a significant increase in students’ Collaborative, Participant, and Independent learning styles over the course of the semester. Implications for practice and additional research are suggested.

Student Learning Styles

This study aims to analyze the characteristics of student learning styles based on visual, auditory and kinesthetic learning styles as well as the characteristics of learning styles based on the surrounding environment. The research method uses descriptive qualitative. The research sample was using a random technique so that the total sample was 43 students. The instrument of this research is a questionnaire with 3 indicators of visual, auditory and kinesthetic as well as how the role of the surrounding environment in determining student learning styles. Supporting instruments using interview techniques. The data analysis technique used descriptive statistics and qualitative descriptive analysis. Based on the results of the study, it is known that the identification of student characteristics on learning styles is seen from visual learning styles (28%), auditory (31%) and kinesthetic (41%). Characteristics of learning styles in the form of environmental identification based on student interaction are learning alone (23%), studying with others in a calm state (28%) and learning with others by doing something (49%). Identification of the environment based on outdoor learning places is 77% and the percentage of indoor learning is (23%). Based on the identification results, the majority have the habit and desire to learn outside the classroom in developing their competencies, this is in line with the heutagogy learning strategy, namely independent learning, developing their own learning strategies, developing theoretical and practical materials together with people or groups who can work together.

Factors affecting students’ English learning performances are always debated among language researchers. This research is carried out in art colleges to figure out the students’ preferences in learning styles and learning strategies as well as the relationship between them. Questionnaires have been applied and data have been dealt with by SPSS. This research has shown that students in the art college tend to be visual and individual learners, and thus they prefer to adopt metacognitive, memory and affective strategies.

Student Learning Styles

The ability to solve mathematics problems is an ability needed in the learning process. Mathematic anxiety and student learning styles are among the factors that influence the success of mathematics problem-solving ability. By paying attention to mathematics anxiety and learning styles possessed by students, it is expected that the ability to solve mathematics problems will increase. This research is a field research type with an Ex Post Facto method and multiple linear regression statistical data analysis techniques. Data was collected through mathematics anxiety questionnaires, student learning style questionnaires, and mathematics problem-solving skills of students at Madrasah Aliyah level. The results show that (1) there is no significant effect of mathematics anxiety on the ability to solve mathematics problems with the tcount is 1.537 and the significance level is 0.126 ≥ 0.05. (2) there is a positive and significant effect of learning styles on the ability to solve mathematics problems with the value of tcount is 2.457 and a significance level of 0.015 <0.05.
