Decision Support System for Learning Disabilities Children in Detecting Visual-Auditory-Kinesthetic Learning Style

Abstract

The innovation of information and communications technology in education has improved the learning quality and has provided a positive impact on the learning environment and its community. Integrating learning styles in adaptive e-Learning systems has been considered a growing trend in technology to improve the learning process. Also, when these technologies are obtainable, reasonable and available, they represent more than a transformation for people with disabilities. The purpose of this research is to adopt a decision support system in e-learning in order to model the visual-auditory-kinesthetic learning style focusing on learning disabilities children. Learning disabilities children face difficulties in processing and retaining information and thus have problems in the classroom. Providing adaptively based on learning styles has potential to make learning easier for students and increase learning progress. The traditional way to identify learning styles is by using questionnaires. Even though, the problem with the traditional approach is not all the students are interested to fill out a questionnaire. Hence the most recent years, several approaches have been proposed for automatically detecting learning styles to solve these problems. Therefore, the main aim of this paper is to propose elearning decision support system architecture to estimate students' learning style automatically using literature-based method. Calculation to estimate each of the student's learning styles based on number of visits and the time that spent on learning objects with respect to the visual-auditory-kinesthetic learning style.

Predicting the Learning Path to Learner’s Optimum Comprehension

“…With the system, the learners could comprehend to some extent, but there is still more room for improvement because this system is really time consuming; knowing the content the learner will attain high comprehension. Yahya et al [9] used the standard MDP-based decision support system in e-learning to model the visual-auditory-kinesthetic learning style based on the time spent on these learning paths by the learners. This system proposed to teach a particular learner based on the estimate of the time spent on the learning style.…”

Profile of Culinary Vocational School Students' Learning Styles as a Basis for Choosing Science Learning Methods

“…The results of the study Irawati et al (2021) based on the results of an analysis of the visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles questionnaire, it can be seen that learning styles have a significant influence on learning outcomes. According to Yahya & Noor (2015) the VAK learning style model focuses on observation, hearing and feeling. This model is categorized into three modalities, the first visual learner, the second auditory learner and lastly the kinesthetic learner.…”

Tahapan Belajar Al Qur’an Menggunakan Huruf Hijaiyah Isyarat bagi Anak dengan Hambatan Pendengaran

“…Gaya belajar visual dan kinestetik menjadi penekanan dalam tahapan pengenalan huruf hijaiyah isyarat ini. Yahya & Noor (2015) menjelaskan bahwa guru perlu mengadaptifkan pembelajaran berdasarkan gaya belajar siswa sehingga dapat membantu siswa belajar lebih mudah dan dapat meningkatkan kemajuan pembelajaran. Huruf hijaiyah isyarat yang digunakan dapat dengan mudah diterima dan digunakan anak dengan hambatan pendengaran dalam belajar Al Qur'an dengan mengoptimalkan kemampuan visual dan kinestetik mereka.…”
