| 实物特征: | The objective of this study is to discover the dominant learning styles among higher level Math students in the Electrical Engineering Program at the University of Costa Rica during 2018-19. Knowledge of the different dominant learning styles is useful to enhance teaching processes among this population group and effectively target efforts to attain significant learning. The study was executed using the following procedure: elaboration of state of the art on learning styles, especially higher education to learn its scope and methodology. The convenient and viable Felder -Silverman Learning Style Model was also used to classify a sample of 122 students based on their predominant learning style. Afterwards, the data was processed and analyzed through a grouping technique to determine the dominant learning style. According to Felder-Silverman, the dominant learning style in this student population is visualizing (55.7% of the population) and sensing/intuitive (45.9% of the population), which indicate preference towards learning based on data and established procedures using tangible and visual material. |
