Learning style instruments and impact of content: A qualitative study

This qualitative study explores the nature and forms of information that can be used to construct a learning style instrument and to what extent the visual and active content can affect the preferences being measured. Six Masters students participated in this study, the preferred learning style of participants was measured twice, once by the VARK approach and once by the developed instrument which was enhanced by visual and active forms of information. The results of both approaches were compared and an interview with each participant has been conducted to further investigate the outcomes. The results of this study show that using a visual and active content for constructing the learning style instruments has a significant effect on the measured preferred learning style of students. This approach may lead to a more balanced assessment of learning style.
