Analysis of learning styles (Kolb) in students of the degrees in early childhood education and primary education within the Faculty of Education

Abstract

This research aimed to present the learning styles according to the model of Alonso, Gallego and Honey in university students of the Faculty of Education within the University of the Basque Country (Spain). With that objective, a sample of 434 students was chosen. The Honey-Alonso Learning Styles (CHAEA) questionnaire was used. The data obtained reflect that the four learning styles proposed by Kolb are distributed in a balanced way among the participating sample; they also reflect that it is not possible to attribute a specific learning style to a specific Degree, except with active learning and Early Childhood Education.
