Chemists as Learners.
Smedley, Leslie C., Jr.
Journal of Chemical Education, v64 n4 p321-23 Apr 1987
Reports on a study designed to provide a profile of the learning styles of members of the American Chemical Society. Indicates that chemists tend to be more alike than different in their approach to learning. Suggests that chemists tend to be convergers preferring active experimentation more than reflective observation. (TW)
