Abstract:
The study entitled "The evaluation of the learning styles at pupils" introduces an example of mathematical modeling in the pedagogy and the didactic of the teaching-learning-evaluating process, and it was applied at the level of pupils in the elementary and high school Romanian education. The content of this paper is stocked around of then analyze of obtained results by applying a questionnaire referring to the learning styles. In this sense, here are presented both the mathematical relations of competence`s index definition (learning style index), of multiplication index and specific multiplication index, as well as the constant equations and that these parameters verify. Practically, after analyzing the evolution of these parameters, we make estimations on the learning efficiency for different samples of pupils in the elementary and high school education, from the view of tackling different learning styles at pupils. The evaluation matrix realized with this occasion represents a proposal, and its application during the learning process can offer to the teacher some useful information in tackling some pedagogical strategies. The efficiency of the teaching-learning-evaluating process at physics lessons related to the learning styles, visual, aural and practical, can be measured and analyzed both at a diagnostically level and at advanced one. The feedback obtained by analyzing the learning styles at pupils, represents a useful indicator in the development of some didactical methods, but also in making possible corrections, in time, at the level of the methods used in the education process.
