How Do Learning Styles Relate to Performance in a Computer Applications Course?

Davidson, Gayle V.; And Others

Journal of Research on Computing in Education, v24 n3 p348-58 Spr 1992

A learning style inventory was administered to 68 undergraduates enrolled in a course on computer applications in education. Correlation of these data with grades on class projects and exams indicated that students with high abstract sequential ability had higher performance scores, and learners with a dominance in abstract random style had lower scores.
