Learning styles, study habits and academic performance of Filipino University students in applied science courses: Implications for instruction

Results of the study revealed that the students of applied sciences courses preferred visual, group and kinesthetic as major learning styles while they manifest a moderate level of study habits. They also have a good level of academic achievement. Test of difference revealed that academic performance, father's occupation and type of high school graduated from spelled significant differences in their perceptual learning styles. | Journal of Technology and Science Education JOTSE, 2019 – 9(2): 184-198 – Online ISSN: 2013-6374 – Print ISSN: 2014-5349 https://doi.org/10.3926/jotse.504 LEARNING STYLES, STUDY HABITS AND ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE OF FILIPINO UNIVERSITY STUDENTS IN APPLIED SCIENCE COURSES: IMPLICATIONS FOR INSTRUCTION Gilbert C. Magulod Jr. Cagayan State University at Lasam (Philippines) gilbertmagulod_rdecsulasam28@yahoo.com Received July 2018 Accepted October 2018 Abstract In order to better prepare university students as proficient, versatile and productive information and industrial technologists in the 21st century, the need to implement instructional strategies and activities naturally align with their predispositions will make them better learners. This study examined the learning style preferences, study habits and level of academic achievement of students enrolled in applied science courses of one campus of a public higher education institution in the Philippines. The study employed descriptive correlational research design to a total of seventy-five respondents who were purposively sampled. Two sets of standardized instruments were utilized by the researcher. Results of the study revealed that the students of applied sciences courses preferred visual, group and kinesthetic as major learning styles while they manifest a moderate level of study habits. They also have a good level of academic achievement. Test of difference revealed that academic performance, father's occupation and type of high school graduated from spelled significant differences in their perceptual learning styles. They also spelled differences in their study habits when grouped according to academic standing in high school, writing skills, mothers’ education, and test anxiety. Finally, there were significant relationships between learning styles, study habits and academic performance of students in applied science courses. The implications of the study can guide instructors to plan and deliver suitable .
