Studies on the learning process began in the twentieth century. Behavioral psychology, knew learning as Inheritable matter which related to senses; further studies by cognitive psychologists emphasized learning as learner's mental differentiation product. In fact, mental differences, leading to a consistent pattern of behavior which is called as learning style. The meaning of learning styles is students' preference in using of learning abilities. This paper aims to identify different learning styles and its relation to the creative performance of students in architectural design studios. Hence this question arises that how learners' distinct learning styles affects their performance; or in other words, how applying of different learning styles provides a platform for creative response in architectural design students. The main strategy for responding to this question, according to a research quantity approach, is correlation research that evaluates the impact of learning styles on creative education performance; Herman Brain Dominance Instrument (HBDI) is used for data collection to measure learning styles. The SPSS statistical software was used to validity results of theoretical studies through quantitative data analysis. Findings indicate that interactive learners had better performance in class team work and internal learners were creative in home activities. Results also show that there is a significant relation between the learning style of interactive learners and their academic performance. The results of this study can be used to promote in leading more efficient and more creative architectural design studios, especially in implementation of group activities.

Wild Curiosity brings together cutting-edge neuroscience and psychology research with simple, effective advice for parents and teachers on how to ignite the fire of curiosity in children. The author offers a new way to think about parenting and teaching—one that values autonomy, creativity, and celebrates the spontaneous and unexpected joys of learning. Following the groundbreaking work of researchers like Peter Gray and thought-leaders like Richard Louv, the book offers justification for the de-institutionalization of learning and a roadmap for how to create engaging, inspiring, and exciting experiences to nurture curiosity for children of all ages.

This research results from the need to establish a connection between educational methodologies and students’ learning styles so that students can understand concepts with a high level of abstraction, such as control concepts. For this, definitions for learning, learning styles and active educational methodology from an engineering perspective were proposed. Then, a review of the literature on the use of learning styles in engineering, specifically in the area of systems control, is also presented. Finally, a methodology with a laboratory approach, integrating active methodologies and a learning style model, to teach control concepts was proposed.

Action Learning and Action Research deepens understanding and contributes to new knowledge about the theory, practice and processes of Action Learning (AL) and Action Research. It clarifies what constitutes AL/AR in its many forms and what it is not.

The book contributes to an understanding of an educational shift prevalent in our society toward creating humanizing conditions though pedagogy, that will seek co-existence within the lines of policy while influencing system-wide change.

Teaching is an essential skill in becoming a faculty member in any institution of higher education. Yet how is that skill actually acquired by graduate students? Teaching as if Learning Matters collects first-person narratives from graduate students and new PhDs that explore how the skills required to teach at a college level are developed. It examines the key issues that graduate students face as they learn to teach effectively when in fact they are still learning and being taught. Featuring contributions from over thirty graduate students from a variety of disciplines at Indiana University, Teaching as if Learning Matters allows these students to explore this topic from their own unique perspectives. They reflect on the importance of teaching to them personally and professionally, telling of both successes and struggles as they learn and embrace teaching for the first time in higher education.

Tap into children's inherent curiosity to create a dynamic emergent curriculum plan based on children's interests and thinking.

A renowned educator-psychologist explains how children learn and how family, classroom, and school practices can help them learn more effectively. In addition to drawing on studies of learning outcomes, the author reveals economic research on teacher education and school choice that challenges many popular assumptions.
