A Rapid Transition from Campus to Emergent Distant Education; Effects on Students’ Study Strategies in Higher Education

“…Learning patterns constitute a related concept, which has a wide meaning involving both different pattern and learning styles. The latter seems to be of crucial importance to students' success when their style is matched in the teaching structure [57] and through teachers' knowledge of how the students learn, given that "educators can help to develop better support for students in adapting to new environments" [58] (p. 1).…”

“…Another variable affecting students' learning strategies is obviously teachers' teaching methods, which is profoundly affected by the transition to remote teaching, according to, for example, Aktan [3], Boström and Löfqvist [12], Carillo and Flores [62], Kee [65], Knowles and Kerkman [51], Skulmowski and Rey [62] (2020), Song and Vermunt [58], and Todri [60]. A common theme appeared in the articles: to enable the development of metacognitive strategies mentioned above, functioning interaction and communication between students and between teachers and students, findability, and well-prepared lesson plans with thought-out structure, adjusted examinations, and so on are needed.…”

¿Cómo aprenden los estudiantes de educación secundaria y universitaria? Un análisis integral desde los estilos de aprendizaje.

“…A la vez, un 22 % cambia de carrera durante el primer o el segundo año de estudios (Ministerio de Educación & Secretaría de Políticas Universitarias, 2019). Las dificultades que ocurren en este tramo del trayecto son explicadas, en buena medida, por diferencias -individuales, institucionales y métodos de enseñanza, entre otros-entre los niveles secundario y universitario (Eddaif et al, 2017;Song & Vermunt, 2021).…”

Student Learning Approaches: Beyond Assessment Type to Feedback and Student Choice

“…One area which is now firmly embedded within the research narrative, having emerged in the 1970s [2], is student approaches to learning (SAL), which can be defined as the way students go about their learning in a specific situation [3]. These approaches may also be referred to as patterns of learning [4] or dispositions to learning [1] and are thought to be more flexible in HE students than in lower levels of education [5], which makes them particularly relevant to this educational sector. SAL can be distinguished from learning styles because they take into account the effects of previous experiences and contextual factors [6].…”
