Relaciones entre estilos de aprendizaje y evaluación entre pares

Résumé

Introduction. The university education system has generally not trained their students in the ability to assess the tasks covered by their training. In general, the evaluation has been performed by Professor exclusively, although new trends consider using a formative assessment relevant. (Rodriguez, Palmero, & Rivas, 2011), such as peer review. Additionally, students show different styles in how they deal with the learning process. These styles have been defined by Belenky, Clinchy, Goldberger, & Tarule (1997) as a separate knowledge (SK) and connected knowledge (CK). Objective. Find out if your learning style is related to the evaluation by peers. Method. Participants: 98 students of psychology second year. 82 participants were women. Instrument: Survey of Attitudes Towards Thinking and Learning (ATTLS) implemented in Moodle. Two peer assessment questionnaires created for the course Statistical Inference. Results. Significant inverse correlations between evaluation and coworkers SK, both at the beginning and at the end of the course were found. Beside direct between learning styles and the two types of evaluation relations. CONCLUSION: Based on the definition of Belenky on Separated Knower, the results of our study suggest that students with learning style separately show a belligerent and individualistic behavior and therefore their colleagues tend to negatively evaluate.
