This book was released on 1987 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The purpose of this study was to determine: (1) if a predominate learning style and learning preference existed for a select group of junior and senior baccalaureate degree nursing students, and (2) if there were differences between the two groups in their predominant learning styles and learning preferences. A total of 49 junior and 80 senior nursing students completed the Gregorc Style Delineator, the Wells' Learning Preference Survey and a demographic questionnaire. Though there were no reported statistical significance between the two groups of nursing students in their learning style preferences, the junior students preferred the Concrete Sequential (n=20, 42.6%) and Abstract Random (n=18, 38.3%) learning styles, while the senior students preferred the Abstract Random (n=29, 39.7%)and Concrete Sequential (n=25, 34.2%) learning styles. The learning methods preferred by the entire group of nursing students were drill and practice (n=106, 82.2%), television/movies (n=103, 79.8%), group discussion (n=95, 73.7%), and short lecture with question and answer (n=95, 73.7%). There was a statistically significant difference between junior and senior students on four of the twelve learning preferences. Juniors showed a significantly higher preference over the seniors for learning through groups with discussion (Tau=.20, p=.02), lectures (Tau=.16, p=.04) and slide/filmstrips with audiotapes (Tau=.21, p=.01). The seniors demonstrated a significantly higher preference over juniors for games as a method of learning (Tau=.21, p=.02). Suggestions for further study include a longitudinal study design which could incorporate manipulation of teaching strategies"--Document.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing the success of diverse undergraduate students is central to the mission of many nursing programs. Numerous programs administer learning style inventories in order to obtain baseline information about students' learning needs. However, little is understood about students' intent to use the learning style preference information. The purpose of this study was to examine variables associated with intent to use learning style preference information by undergraduate nursing students. Variables included demographic, academic, and learning style preference variables as well as students' ability to explain learning style preference information, obtained from a commercial learning style inventory. A purposive convenience sample (N = 219) was obtained from six baccalaureate nursing programs in different geographical areas to achieve adequate learner diversity for the variables to be studied. A researcher-developed survey entitled Intent to Use Learning Style Preference Information was used to collect study data. Students responded to questions regarding demographic, academic, and learning style preference information. Pearson correlation, independent samples t test, analysis of variance, and multiple linear regression methods were used for statistical analyses. The significant variables of type of BSN program, years of education, person who shared results, perception of usefulness of learning style assessment, and ability to explain learning style preference information, when entered into the regression model, accounted for 32.5% of the variance in the intent to use learning style preference information, F(5, 198) = 19.07, p

Book Handbook of Individual Differences  Learning  and Instruction

Download or read book Handbook of Individual Differences Learning and Instruction written by David H. Jonassen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written for teachers, trainers, and instructional designers -- anyone who is responsible for designing or preparing instruction -- this book begins with one basic premise: individual differences mediate learning at all levels and in all situations. That is, some learners find it easier or more difficult to learn some skills or to learn from certain forms of instruction because they vary in terms of aptitude, cognitive styles, personality, or learning styles. This volume describes most of the major differences in a readable and accessible way and demonstrates how to design various forms of instruction and predict the ease with which learners will acquire different skills. Most books that discuss any learner differences focus on those that characterize special education populations, whereas this book focuses on normal learners. Designed as a handbook, this volume is structured to provide easy and consistent access to information and answers, and prescriptions and hypotheses. When definitive answers are not possible because there is no research documentation, the authors suggest theories designed to stimulate future research.
