Abstract

If the extent of the literature is an indicator, educationalists believe that student learning styles are important (see Coffield et al, 2005 for an extensive review). One stream of the literature argues that within all groups there is a diversity of individual learning-style profiles (Boyle, 2000; Anderson, 1995). Other scholars argue that students who undertake higher education in a defined ‘occupational’ area, such as engineer or chemist, have common learning preferences indicating a ‘group learning-style profile’ (Felder & Brent, 2005; Dalgety & Coll, 2005; Hake, 1998).
