Effects of Learning Style on E-Learning
From “The Influence of Learning Styles on Learners in E-Learning Environments” by Naser-Nick Manochehr (pdf) in the December 2006 issue of CHEER:
The results revealed that for the instructor-based learning class (traditional), the learning style was irrelevant, but for the web-based learning class (e-learning), the learning style was significantly important. The results indicated that students with the Assimilator learning style (these learn best through lecture, papers and analogies) and the Converger learning style (these learn best through laboratories, field work and observations) achieved a better result with the e-learning (web-based) method.
