“…The study used the Thinking Styles Inventory-Revised II and the University Self-Efficiency Scale on 366 deaf and hard-of-hearing and 467 hearing university students in mainland China and found that participants with Type 1 styles (i.e., more creativity-generating, less structured, and cognitively more complex) had higher levels of university self-efficiency. The study also showed that deaf and hard-of hearing students with Type 2 styles (i.e., more norm favouring, more structured, and cognitively more simplistic) had lower levels of university self-efficiency [38]. However, the study had some limitations, since the deaf students enrolled in this study were university students who had attended secondary schools for the deaf and the results cannot be generalized to deaf students attending school along with hearing students; further, the selected participants belonged to the same academic discipline (art and design majors).…”

Abstract-Studies have shown that deaf and hearing-impaired students have many difficulties in learning applied disciplines such as Medicine, Engineering, and Computer Programming. This study aims to investigate the readiness of deaf students to pursue higher education in applied sciences, more specifically in computer science. This involves investigating their capabilities in computer skills and applications. Computer programming is an integral component in the technological field that can facilitate the development of further scientific advances. Devising a manner of teaching the deaf and hearing-impaired population will give them an opportunity to contribute to the technology sector. This would allow these students to join the scientific world when otherwise; they are generally unable to participate because of the limitations they encounter. The study showed that deaf students in Jeddah are eager to continue their higher education and that a large percentage of these students are keen on studying computer science, particularly if they are provided with the right tools.

“…Physical development has a very big influence on the child's ability to do something if the child's physical development is not good, it will be difficult for the him to do various things and he can be limited in some actions. (Cheng et al 2016). In following physical education children who are disabled can not do the same sport as normal children and they are limited in some sports.…”

Summary Playing is a pleasure for every child with no exception to the children who have physical disorder and their capability of motion is limited. Children with hearing impairment need appropriate motivation for learning and performing physical activities. This motivation affects also their Physical Education. For students with the hearing impairment, the materials that are supposed to be taught during the physical education lessons are divided according to the level of disability. Under these circumstances, the research is conducted to determine the relationship between the motivation to learn during the Physical Education lessons and the academic achievement among students with hearing impairment. Researchers used traditional Quantitative methods of research with 40 Junior High School students with hearing impairment from Indonesia, Sekolah Menengah Pertama Luar Biasa (SMPLB), category B. We used the questionnaire dealing with learning motivation of children to collect the data. The data were processed using the SPSS and analyzed by descriptive quantitative operations. Results of the study showed, that there is a relationship between learning motivation of Physical Education and learning outcomes of Physical Education among students of Category B SMPLB, where the value of 0,000 is less than 0.05.

“…Thus, those researches that aim at understanding cognitive skills to elucidate how the learning process is efficient in the school context has gained prominence in the last decades (Cheng, Hu & Sin, 2016;Oliveira, Santos & Scacchetti, 2016;Oliveira, Inácio & Buriola, 2016;Curry, 1983;Riding & Cheema, 1991;Zhang & Sternberg, 2005). Zhang and Sternberg (2005) observe that learning, being a multifaceted process, presents aspects that permit the organization, storage, and reorganization of knowledge, which therefore goes beyond the notion of action.…”

Abstract:This study aimed at obtaining validity evidence for a learning style scale and at analyzing student's learning styles. The study included 709 students from professional technical education. We used a Scale of Learning Styles, with 80 items for the description of the preferred styles, and evaluated five dimensions, namely: environmental, social, instrumental, personal, and activity conditions. We applied the test collectively on the day and time set by each educational institution. A factor analysis with Varimax rotation indicated three-factor structure for the scale. The factors were grouped as follows: factor 1 -personal terms and conditions of activity, with 16 items (α = 0.78); factor 2 -environmental conditions, with 11 items (α = 0.79); factor 3 -social conditions, with 11 items (α = 0.81). Overall, we observed that the students were more personal conditions and activity style-oriented. A scale that can map students' learning styles is relevant to Brazilian education because it allows students to know their learning preferences and can provide them with better learning conditions.

EVIDÊNCIAS DE VALIDADE PARA UMA MEDIDA DE ESTILOS DE APRENDIZAGEMResumo: Este estudo objetivou buscar evidências de validade para uma escala de estilos de aprendizagem, bem como identificar quais são esses estilos. Participaram do estudo 709 estudantes do ensino técnico profissional. Utilizou-se uma escala de Estilos de Aprendizagem, com 80 itens destinados à descrição dos estilos de aprendizagem, avaliados em cinco dimensões: condições ambientais, sociais, instrumentais, pessoais e da atividade. A aplicação ocorreu de forma coletiva em dia e horário estabelecidos pelas instituições de ensino. A análise fatorial com rotação Varimax indicou estrutura de três fatores para a escala. Os fatores se agruparam da seguinte maneira: fator 1 -condições pessoais e condições da atividade, com 16 itens (α = 0,78); fator 2 -condições ambientais, com 11 itens (α = 0,79); fator 3 -condições sociais, com 11 itens (α = 0,81). No geral, os estudantes se mostraram mais orientados pelos estilos das condições pessoais e da atividade. Uma escala que possa mapear o estilo de aprendizagem dos estudantes parece ser relevante para a educação brasileira por permitir que se conheça as preferências no modo de aprender, podendo propiciar-lhes melhores condições de aprendizado.
