Book excerpt: The purpose of the Bologna Process is to promote the international mobility of students, graduates and professionals within a European higher education area by 2010, by making it easier for qualifications to be recognised throughout Europe and therefore for them to gain employment. The Bologna Declaration, signed by higher education ministers from 29 European countries in 1999, seeks to achieve this through the creation of a common framework for degrees based on the use of credits. This publication contains the proceedings of a seminar held, in Lisbon in April 2002, to discuss key issues involved in the development of policies which will help realise the European higher education area.

Download or read book The Effects of Learning styles Information on the Achievement of Community College Developmental Math Students written by Kevin A. Hoeffner and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Four out of five Americans will require some postsecondary education. Therefore, a majority of population will return to a community college for retraining and personal growth (McCabe, 2003). Since the turn of this century, many studies have been conducted to examine the success and challenges of the relatively new community college system. One of the most significant challenges is the large percentage of the U.S. population requiring remedial coursework. Fifty-five percent of students entering Florida's postsecondary system require remediation. Of this large remedial population, only 51% will complete their preparatory classes. Students who do complete classes take an average of two years to finish preparatory classes and move on to college-level work. It is hypothesized that learning styles information will empower students with knowledge about their study habits and positively effect academic achievement. This research first examined the quantitative effect that learning styles information had on student achievement. The second qualitative phase of the study examined students' perceptions of learning styles information. Three Introductory Algebra (MAT 0024) courses at a large suburban community college were intensively studied during one spring semester. Due to the size of the study (N=69), results obtained in the quantitative portion were not significant enough to accept the hypotheses. Responses in focus groups showed that students generally felt that learning styles information was useful and half the class used the information to modify how they studied. Half of the students in the control group modified their study habits in response to knowing more about their learning style. Although the qualitative data was supportive of the usefulness of learning styles information in the classroom the quantitative data did not support the hypotheses that learning styles information improves achievement.

Download or read book Learning Styles written by Rita Dunn and published by Reston, Virg. : National Association of Secondary School Principals. This book was released on 1988 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Case study observations and analyses of learning styles in U.S. secondary schools comprise the crux of this monograph. The text provides testimony to the accomplishments of schools actually integrating differentiated learning styles into their diverse educational programs and concomitant coursework. With the notion that learning style provides important insights into the ways individual students process information, this research documents the implementation of learning styles successfully in 12 schools. The schools are of many varieties: public and private (including parochial and nonsectarian); rural, suburban, and urban schools both large and small; an alternative program; and a university-affiliated laboratory school. In addition to the 12 case studies, learning styles are defined and effective leadership and management strategies facilitating learning styles' applications are diagnosed. A reference list of 8 pages and an annotated bibliography of 21 items are included. (JAM)

Download or read book The Contribution of Learning Styles to Achievement of At risk Students in a Blended Learning Environment written by Timisha Barnes-Jones and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This mixed-methods research study was designed to investigate the effect of learning styles on the academic achievement of at-risk high school students in a blended learning environment. The researcher analyzed students' academic achievement scores and students' learning styles. The researcher used Kolb's learning style inventory 4.0 to assess students' learning styles. In addition, instructional strategies data from teachers were collected to assess the effect on academic achievement when instructional strategies match learning styles. For analysis, the researcher determined a degree of match score for instructional strategies matched to learning styles. -- Statistical analysis of the data revealed that there was no significant relationship between learning styles and academic achievement. The researcher determined there was no relationship between the degree of match scores and the content areas English language arts, mathematics, and science. A Spearman's rank order correlation test revealed a significant relationship between degree of match scores and achievement only in the content area of social studies. Qualitative analysis revealed that when there was alignment between the learning environment, instructor type, and the learning style, students achieved at higher levels than when there was no alignment. -- This research suggests that teachers should be aware of the learning styles of their students and provide various instructional strategies to ensure the success of all students. There is also evidence in this research to suggest that accommodating learning styles has a positive influence on academic achievement. It is recommended that instructors work with students to increase their flexibility in learning situations. This research suggests that teaching to a variety of learning styles may be more beneficial than simply matching student preferences alone.
