Resumen de Les styles d'apprentissage: des concepts aux mesures
This article surveys the main models relating to learning styles, as well as the evaluation instruments to which these models have given rise, using the approach of a critical review. A number of criteria can be used to place models in relation to each other. In particular, models can be compared on the number and type of dimensions used, the descriptive or normative nature of the model, and the degree to which an interactional perspective is used. A study of measurement instruments considers the data recording method used and summarises the main results available regarding validation.
In conclusion, a number of questions are raised concerning the diversity of measurement instruments and their overlap with other tools. Finally, from a practical perspective the use of learning style instruments is discussed and from a conceptual perspective a restructuration of the diversity of styles is proposed.
