Abstract in Portuguese
Esse estudo tem como objetivo principal avaliar o impacto dos estilos de aprendizagem dos alunos, professores e disciplinas no desempenho acadêmico dos alunos do curso de graduação em Contabilidade da Faculdade de Economia, Administração e Contabilidade de Ribeirão Preto ? Universidade de São Paulo (FEA-RP/USP). Para identificação dos estilos de aprendizagem foi utilizado o Índice de Estilos de Aprendizagem de Felder-Soloman (ILS), questionário on-line, acessível na página eletrônica da Escola de Engenharia de São Carlos ? Universidade de São Paulo (EESC/USP). Participaram da pesquisa, 194 alunos do curso de graduação em Contabilidade da FEA-RP, o que corresponde a 82% dos alunos ativos do curso, e 29 professores que, além do ILS, responderam um outro questionário, elaborado pelos pesquisadores, com base no Modelo de Felder-Silverman, para identificação dos estilos de 40 disciplinas do curso. O desempenho acadêmico dos alunos foi mensurado pelas médias finais das notas obtidas por eles, antes das reavaliações, critério este escolhido, em termos de precisão metodológica, como forma de tornar a pesquisa direcionada e objetiva. Os resultados mostraram que os estilos dominantes dos alunos são: ativo, sensorial, visual e seqüencial. A maioria dos professores tem estilos reflexivo, intuitivo, visual e seqüencial e a maioria das disciplinas é reflexiva, sensorial, verbal e seqüencial. Foi constatado o impacto dos diferentes estilos de aprendizagem desses elementos no desempenho acadêmico dos alunos, tanto individualmente, como combinados, revelando, para algumas dimensões, médias significativamente mais altas.
