LEARNING STYLES AS A FUNCTION OF CLASS STANDING AT UMR

摘要

Each of us has a particular learning style that facilitates how we take in and process new information. Research has shown that teaching to one of these preferred styles, at least a portion of the time, may enhance teaching and training effectiveness. Using the work of Kolb, who identified four types of learning styles, this study seeks to understand the preferred learning style of engineering management students at different class levels at UMR. Implications for classroom instruction and on-the-job training are then presented.
