This study used the Learning Style Inventory by Dunn, Dunn, and Price to identify learning style variables among school students in isolated Northeastern Manitoba communities. The importance of these learning styles to educational practice is discussed. The study sample consisted of Cree-speaking students enrolled in grades 4 through 10 at 3…

Many learners appear to approach learning in different yet reasonably consistent ways. The ability to recognize and take responsibility for these particular styles is an essential feature of efficient and effective planning and efficient and effective learning. Program planners can use knowledge about learning styles to develop programs that: (1)…

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify the types of questions that students ask during the learning of chemistry; discuss the role of students' questions in the process of constructing knowledge, and investigate the relationship between students' questions, approaches to learning, and learning styles. Design/methodology/approach: The…

Individual differences play an essential role in teaching and learning. Students differ in their learning styles which indicate the way they learn. The purpose of this study was to determine pre-service teachers' learning style preferences and investigate whether there was a significant difference between males and females in their learning…

Compares the effects of two training methods on computer attitude and performance in a World Wide Web page design program in a field experiment with high school students in Taiwan. Discusses individual differences, Kolb's Experiential Learning Theory and Learning Style Inventory, Computer Attitude Scale, and results of statistical analyses.…

It is difficult for the students to understand some concepts related to the chemistry education such as complex formation, central ion, ligand, free electron pair, acceptor, donor, stability constant of complex and concealing. In those cases, demonstrating two dimensional models and using various molecular graphics programs on computers could be…
