Learning Styles in Undergraduate Students of Engineering and Administration at the Polytechnic University of Tulancingo. RIDE. Rev. Iberoam. Investig. Desarro.

The research was conducted with the purpose of analyzing the learning styles present in students from five programs offered at the Polytechnic University of Tulancingo (UPT), Mexico. The main objective was to identify the predominant learning styles and examine their distribution according to gender and field of study. To achieve this purpose, a methodology was employed that included each of the items using the Honey-Alonso Learning Styles Questionnaire (CHAEA), which was completed by 122 students selected as a representative sample, including students from the Engineering and Economic-Administrative areas. The results revealed a moderate predominance of active and pragmatic styles among the evaluated students. Specifically, it was observed that the reflective style stood out as predominant in both areas of study, although with a slightly greater inclination towards engineering.

The comparison of these findings with reference standards validated the classification of the results obtained. When analyzing the data from a gender perspective, it was observed that among women, in both areas of study, a reflective-pragmatic learning style prevailed, while among men there was a slight increase in both profiles. In summary, the students showed a marked inclination towards reflective styles with 80% and pragmatic styles with 87% preference, according to the results obtained. These findings provide valuable information about the learning preferences of students at this educational institution, which can be useful for improving teaching strategies and curriculum design.
