Pharmacists' Inventory of Learning Styles - 1 views

    • Stuart T. Haines
       
      The authors and researchers aim to develop and establish a learning style tool specific to pharmacy, as no previous tool exists.  The foundation is derived from other well-known learning theories, including Kolb's Learning Style Inventory (LSI) and the Canfield Learning Style.  Through the use of focus groups, the PILS was derived and assessed by the developers. This tool serves as the only pharmacy-specific tool identified through a literature search.

Comparison of Learning Styles of Pharmacy Faculty and Students - AJPE - 1 views

    • Stuart T. Haines
       
      The authors and researchers compare the dominant typologies of student pharmacists and faculty using the Pharmacists' Inventory of Learning Styles (PILS).  Approximately 300 student pharmacists and 60 faculty members at a college of pharmacy were enrolled and their dominant PILS type determined.  Their analysis compares not only students to faculty, but also secondary outcomes, including year of school and gender.  This study serves to indicate that the PILS has been used to evaluate pharmacist learning styles and its application to real-world practice.

Matching Learning Styles and Learning Outcomes - AJPE - 1 views

    • Stuart T. Haines
       
      This research attempted to determine whether a learning style "match" between students and preceptors lead to improved learning outcomes (e.g. evaluation of student or preceptor performance).  Most students and preceptors were "assimilators" (aka "thinkers") based on the PILS questionnaire.  However, "matching" learning styles of preceptors and students didn't improve learning outcomes.

Big Dog and Little Dog's Performance Juxtaposition - 1 views

    • Stuart T. Haines
       
      This is an oddly named but a rich resource regarding instructional design and human performance.  Be sure to click on the navigation tabs - especially the Training tab which nicely summarizes various instructional design models.  If you want to explore things a little deeper, the Knowledge tab has some really thought provoking stuff about what knowledge is, how to acquire it, and how to transfer it.  Don Clark maintains this site.  He states that he's a "Learning Designer and Consultant" and, despite being a freelance kinda guy, he's created a pretty impressive site.  Once you get past all of the ads (just ignore them), I think you'll find the site very useful.
