  • use of felder and Silverman learning style model for online course design
    Educational Technology Research and Development, 2019
    Co-Authors: Moushir M Elbishouty, Tingwen Chang, Ahmed Aldraiweesh, Uthman Alturki, Richard A W Tortorella, Junfeng Yang, Sabine Graf
    Abstract:

    Learning Management Systems are used in millions of higher education courses, across various countries and disciplines. Teachers build courses reflecting their individual teaching methods, which may not always fit students’ different learning styles. However, limited information is known about how well these courses support the learners. The study aims to explore the use of Felder and Silverman learning style for online course design. The study has used linear transfer function system models to develop fundamentals of feedback by a course analyzer tool. This interactive tool allows teachers to determine a course’s support level for specific learning styles, based on the Felder and Silverman learning style model. The Felder and Silverman learning style model in this study is used to visualize the fit between course and learning style to help teachers improve their course’s support for diverse learning styles. The results of a pilot study successfully validated the course analyzer tool, as it has potential to improve the design of the course in future and allow more insight into overall student performance. The findings suggest that a course designed with certain learning styles in mind can improve learning of the students with those specific learning styles.

  • in depth analysis of the felder Silverman learning style dimensions
    Journal of research on technology in education, 2007
    Co-Authors: Sabine Graf, Silvia Rita Viola, Tommaso Leo
    Abstract:

    AbstractLearning styles are increasingly being incorporated into technology-enhanced learning. Appropriately, a great deal of recent research work is occurring in this area. As more information and details about learning styles becomes available, learning styles can be better accommodated and integrated into all aspects of educational technology. The aim of this paper is to analyse data about learning styles with respect to the Felder-Silverman learning style model (FSLSM) in order to provide a more detailed description of learning style dimensions. The analyses show the most representative characteristics of each learning style dimension as well as how representative these characteristics are. As a result, we provide additional information about the learning style dimensions of FSLSM. This information is especially important when learning styles are incorporated in technology-enhanced learning.

  • the composite of students characteristic and cognitive dimension in vocational education
    2013
    Co-Authors: Mimi Mohaffyza Mohamad, Nor Lisa Sulaiman, Lai Chee Sern, Kahirol Mohd Salleh
    Abstract:

    Objective – This study conducted to identify how learning styles influenced students’ academic achievement based on cognitive dimension and vocational elements in Building Construction involving the students and teachers from Vocational Colleges. Methodology/Technique – Felder and Silverman Learning Styles Model comprise four learning styles dimensions: processing, perception, input and understanding, as a method to identify students’ learning styles. The cognitive elements and vocational elements which consist of the aspects of knowledge, skills and problem solving were taken into account in constructing the question items for Student Perception in Cognitive Learning and the students’ achievement test for Cognitive Mastery Achievement Test. Stratified sampling procedure was applied in the selection of 128 students as research respondents. Findings – The study discovered that students tend to be visual learners. This study also analyzed the differences between the four dimensions of Felder Silverman LS with the vocational elements in Building Construction. The discussions with teachers revealed that most teachers accommodate students learning styles with cognitive mastery by using visual approach to increase students’ academic achievement. Novelty –the paper could act as a guideline for teachers to facilitate students to learn more effectively and to boost the academic achievement in vocational education. Type of Paper: Empirical
