Correlação entre o estilo individual de aprendizagem e os resultados das avaliações somativa e formativas

Abstract

Learning is the process of acquiring knowledge and skills through experience. Whether through formal or informal education, the learning process integrates the subject with its environment and gives it access to the cultural heritage that enables the creation of new knowledge. It is desired that people follow different learning paths that result in different outcomes of training and use of knowledge. In this work, David Kolb's Experiential Learning Theory was used, which divides learning into four individual styles, namely: activism, reflection, theory and pragmatism. Thus, it is believed that when knowing the different learning styles and the profile of their students, the teacher has an advantage in the educational field, considering the best methodology for learning and, consequently, obtaining more efficient results.
