However, focus on Generation ‘Y’ healthcare undergraduates from a multi-cultural Asian society, is scarce and fragmented. Therefore, this research aims to identify the learning style preferences of Generation ‘Y’ undergraduates enrolled in varied healthcare programs at a Malaysian University.
Method
A quantitative cross-sectional study design was adopted. Honey and Mumford's Learning Style Questionnaire was used to explore the learning styles.
Results
The reflector learning style was most preferred by the Malaysian healthcare undergraduates, and no significant difference was found between the learning styles of the clinical group and the semi-clinical group.
Conclusions
Educators should engage Malaysian healthcare undergraduates in a non-threatening environment — Association between learning style and sociodemographic warrants further investigation. |
