The purpose of this study was to examine relationships between high school students' leaning style and learning achievements.
Leaning style questionnaires, which was revised by the researcher of this study, was used to identify students' leaning styles, wholist-verbal, wholist-imagery, analytic-verbal, and analytic-imagery. Subjects were 250 high school students (121 males and 129 females) in rural area,
Major findings of this study were as follows:
The learning achievements of students with wholist-imagery and analytic-imagery learning style in social division and language division were higher than those in the scientific division and arts-athletic division. But, there was no relationship between learning achievements and learning styles in the science and arts-athletic division.
It was found that learning achievements based on learning style were not related with gender. Effects of interaction by learning styles and gender are found in the language division only. Leaning effects in gender were not found in other divisions such as social, science, and arts-athletic division.
