“…Indeed we consider these items to be related to certain motives and attitudes whose content does not correspond exactly to the meaning of the concepts mentioned above. This result is similar to the study undertaken by Alves de Lima et al (2006) with Argentinean students and to what Ajisuksmo and Vermunt (1999) reported with Indonesian students.…”

“…Moreover, the different academic year may be another reason for these differences. Yet another interesting fact, and in keeping with Alves de Lima et al (2006), is that our students use more concrete processing strategies, self and external regulation strategies, vocational orientation and learning conceptions based on the use of knowledge. All of this seems to be a set of characteristics more usual in Latin-American and Spanish students as compared to Western and Asian learners.…”

The aim of this study was to analyse and compare the learning patterns of higher education students from Spain and three Latin-American countries (Colombia, Mexico and Venezuela). For this purpose Vermunt's Inventory of Learning Styles (ILS) was translated into Spanish and tested. The participants were 456 undergraduates enrolled in a teacher education programme who completed the ILS and a set of questions about their academic performance, personal background and university experience. The data were analysed using reliability and factor analyses, analysis of variance and structural equation modelling. The results showed significant differences in mean ILS scores and factor structures between students from different countries. Academic performance was explained to a significant degree by some ILS scales about learning patterns. The results were interpreted within a cross-cultural framework, focusing on differences reported up to date between Latin-American and Spanish students versus Western and Asian students. IntroductionThere is a clear need to learn about the motivational, cognitive, metacognitive and contextual aspects of learning in order to develop, improve and foster students' learning strategies in a specific educational context and domain. In the past 10 years there has been increasing interest in understanding and fostering teaching and learning processes, and recognising how different aspects of learning work together to define the patterns of learning (e.g. Boyle, Duffy and Dunleavy 2003;Maggioni, Riconscente and Alexander 2006;Trigwell and Ashwin 2006;Vermunt 2005). However, there are still few studies tackling the analysis of cultural differences and their impact on the configuration of learning patterns and on their explanation of the academic performance in undergraduates from different countries. This study aims to analyse the patterns of learning in a sample of Latin-American and Spanish undergraduates within a cross-cultural discussion.

“…Few programs involve residents in the process of planning how the program deploys the Model, and many of the conference hours are not experiential. Moreover, learning styles vary across learners, which affects how residents learn 23–25 . Individualized educational plans benefit learners of all type.…”

The conference requirements that were logical and helpful years ago may not be logical or helpful now. Technologies available to educators have changed, the amount of material to cover has grown, and online on-demand education has grown even more. We believe that flexibility is needed to customize EM education to suit individual resident and individual program needs, to capitalize on regional and national resources when local resources are limited, to innovate, and to analyze and evaluate interventions with an eye toward outcomes.

Este artículo de revisión y reflexión se planteó con el objetivo de presentar el modelo teórico e instrumental referido a la identificación y el fomento de los patrones de aprendizaje (Vermunt, 1998): un modelo integrador de los componentes de creencias, motivaciones y estrategias en el análisis de los procesos de aprendizaje. Pero, además, un modelo gestado con una clara visión del papel de ciertos factores contextuales y personales en la discusión de sus vínculos direccionales y la configuración propia de los patrones (Vermunt, 2005). En términos científicos, se trata de un modelo reciente que ha tenido sendas revisiones metaanalíticas lideradas por su autor (Vermunt y Donche, 2017; Vermunt y Vermetten, 2004). Aquí, en lo que concierne a la revisión, se retoman tales contribuciones para describir el modelo y su historia; se elabora una breve presentación de su utilización en el territorio iberoamericano para conocer el estado actual en cuanto a los patrones de aprendizaje en esta parte del mundo; y se hace una revisión final de las potencialidades, debilidades y perspectivas con relación a los patrones de aprendizaje. En conjunto, se analiza el rol que tienen los ambientes de aprendizaje, los conocimientos previos, la edad, el género y la dimensión cultural para entender por qué prevalecen ciertas formas de aprender, de crecer, de concebir y actuar con la información.

Learning strategies used by Cardiology residents: Assessment of learning styles and their correlations

Abstract: An application-directed learning style predominates in this group of residents. Information regarding learning styles can provide foundations upon which arguments can be made for changes in education that are traditionally not evidence-based.
