How College Business Students Learn with Emphasis on Differences between Majors
Shoemaker, Nikki; Kelly, Marie
Journal of College Teaching & Learning, v12 n3 p223-230 2015
Students' learning styles play an important role in their success in the classroom and beyond. This study explores the learning styles of business students so that professors can better understand the instructional methods that are most beneficial for their students. A survey of 205 business students in an introductory accounting course revealed that the most common learning style was visual, while the second most common learning style was kinesthetic. These results suggest that a large number of business students process and internalize new information best when they see or actively participate in what they are learning.
