摘要

学习风格是指学生接受和处理信息的偏好。在目前的 CBME 课程中,由于学习更加以学生为中心,了解学生的学习风格偏好可以提高教育效率。学习风格可以通过不同的模型来评估。其中,VARK 模型更为简洁、简单、恰当和可靠。VARK 将学习按感官偏好进行分类--视觉、听觉、读/写和动觉。利用 VARK 问卷确定医学学士学位一年级学生的学习模式和学习风格偏好,并确定学习风格偏好与性别之间的关系。这项横断面研究是在获得机构伦理委员会的许可后,在古瓦哈提 AIIMS 的医学学士学位一年级学生中开展的,为期 6 个月。在征得学生同意后,对他们进行了谷歌 VARK 7.8 版问卷调查。描述性统计用于分析学生对 VARK 各组成部分的偏好。利用卡方检验比较了男女学生的四种 VARK 学习风格。97 名就读于医学学士学位一年级的学生(75 名男生和 22 名女生)参与了研究。大多数学生是四模式学习者(38.14%),表现出对所有四种感官模式的偏好。31 名学生(31.95%)表现出单模态学习模式。其次是三模态学习者(17.52%)和双模态学习者(12.37%),他们分别偏好三种和两种感官模式。最喜欢的学习方式是动觉(平均分是 10±3.58),最少的是读/写(平均分是 4.79±3.48)。对学习风格的了解可使学生提高学习成绩,有助于教师针对不同的学习风格修改和采用适当的教学方法,以提高教育效率。

Identification of learning style preferences among first year MBBS students using VARK questionnaire
Learning style refers to the preference of the students for receiving and processing the information. In the present CBME curriculum, as the learning is more student-centric, understanding the learning style preferences of the students allows higher educational efficiency. Learning styles can be assessed by different models. Among them, the VARK model is more concise, simple, appropriate, and reliable. VARK categorizes learning by sensory preferences – Visual, Auditory, Read/Write, and Kinesthetic. To identify the mode of learning and learning style preferences among first-year MBBS students using the VARK questionnaire and to determine the relationship between learning style preferences and gender. This cross-sectional study was carried out among first-year MBBS students at AIIMS, Guwahati for 6 months after obtaining permission from the Institutional Ethics Committee. Consenting students were administered with a Google form of VARK questionnaire version 7.8. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the student’s preference for various VARK components. The chi-square test was used to compare four VARK learning styles between male and female students. 97 students (75 males and 22 females) studying first-year MBBS participated in the study. Most of the students were tetra-modal learners (38.14%) showing a preference for all four sensory modalities. 31 students (31.95%) showed an unimodal mode of learning. This is followed by trimodal (17.52%) and bimodal (12.37%) learners showing a preference for three and two sensory modalities respectively. The most preferred learning style was kinesthetic (mean score was 10±3.58) and the least was read/write (mean score was 4.79±3.48).Knowledge of the learning style may allow the students to improve their academic performance. It helps the instructors to modify and adopt appropriate teaching methods addressing different learning styles for achieving higher educational efficiency.
