Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2024, Vol 20, Issue 10
Abstract
This study is concerned with the learning style of primary learners in San Manuel, District, Pangasinan Division II for SY 2023 – 2024. The study surveyed learning styles of primary learners. Primary learners preferred visual learning styles, with a smaller percentage preferring logical learning. The study found no significant difference in learning styles on academic performance across various variables. A moderate positive correlation was found between age and learning styles, but weak negative correlations were found between sex, civil status, and educational attainment. Understanding and catering to learning styles might be more crucial for students in certain divisions and national backgrounds. Visual learners can significantly improve their academic performance by incorporating visual elements into lessons. Teachers can help them grasp complex concepts, improve memory retention, and increase engagement with the material. Recognizing and accommodating the needs of visual learners is crucial for creating effective and engaging learning environments. This report emphasizes the importance of catering to diverse learning styles to promote a more inclusive and effective learning environment for all primary learners. It is also recommended that support teachers' to professional development through workshops, seminars, and conferences, and offer scholarships, grants, or financial assistance for advanced degrees or specialized training. Incorporate visual aids and techniques like mind-mapping in education, especially for subjects where visual learning is effective. Focus on diverse teaching methods to create a more engaging and productive learning environment for all students. The Visual (Spatial) Learning Style is recommended for public school teachers to improve academic performance. Further research may explore the impact of learners' learning styles on their academic performance.
