Description
Summary:The objective of the study is to determine the relationship between teaching styles and learning styles in university students; through a correlational study, in a population of 40 professors and 170 university students (Case of Universidad de la Costa – Colombia). For learning styles, Kolb's learning styles instrument was used; and for teaching styles, the Teaching Styles Questionnaire was used, a standardized test designed under the methodology of the Evidence-Based Model and oriented to monitor the development of critical reading, written communication, citizenship competencies, quantitative reasoning and English. The resulting data were organized in a spreadsheet and processed using Statgraphics and R. The results show that the gender of the participants is not significant in the study; the predominant learning style of the students is the Accommodator, which is characterized by a better performance in concrete experience and active experimentation. As for the correspondence between learning styles and teaching styles, there is a strong relationship between them.
