An analysis of typical learning styles of primary school pupils using the VARK questionnaire

Summary/Abstract: This article describes the results of research whose purpose was to identify typical learning styles of upper primary school pupils. The learning styles of pupils were determined using the VARK questionnaire. Two typical groups of pupils that differed in preferences of individual learning styles were subsequently identified by using a generalized cluster analysis. The first group of pupils (71%) preferred learning style K. It was comprised mostly of older pupils and pupils from the city and it included more girls than boys. The second group of pupils (29%) preferred learning style R. It was comprised mostly of younger pupils, and girls and boys were equally represented.
