Abstract

Purpose This paper aims to investigate the effect of learning styles on HyFlex learning towards equity of learning in higher education. Design/methodology/approach A quantitative approach was used, with data collection through a structured online questionnaire. The study participants were undergraduate students (n = 451) studying at various public and private universities in Indonesia. Measurement analysis is used to test the validity of the instrument used. Analysis of structural equations is used to test the relationships between the constructs under study. Findings Survey instruments have satisfactory internal validity and consistency. The learning style of students in higher education positively influences the use of HyFlex’s three learning modalities. All three modalities of HyFlex learning positively affect learning equity, especially the asynchronous online modality. However, the synchronous online effect is insignificant. Active/reflective learning styles only affect face-to-face mode but do not significantly affect the two online modalities, synchronous and asynchronous. Some of the learning style dimensions have an indirect effect on equity through three HyFlex learning modalities. Face-to-face and online asynchronous mediate well the indirect relationship between learning style and equity. The impact of gender and higher education status was not shown to strengthen the relationship between learning styles, HyFlex learning modalities and equity. Research limitations/implications This study will provide valuable understanding for lecturers, educators and developers to adapt and develop HyFlex learning strategies based on the positive dimensions of the Felder–Silverman learning style that can support equitable and inclusive learning. The study forms a foundation for researchers to investigate more constructs that could improve HyFlex learning in future studies. Originality/value This research is a pioneer in using learning styles to investigate trends in using three HyFlex learning modalities, particularly emphasising modalities that can provide equitable learning.

调查学习方式对 HyFlex 学习的影响,促进高等教育中的学习公平
设计/方法/途径采用定量方法,通过结构化在线问卷收集数据。研究对象为在印度尼西亚多所公立和私立大学就读的本科生(n = 451)。测量分析用于检验所用工具的有效性。研究结果调查工具具有令人满意的内部效度和一致性。高校学生的学习风格对 HyFlex 三种学习模式的使用有积极影响。HyFlex 的三种学习模式都对学习公平产生了积极影响,尤其是异步在线学习模式。然而,同步在线的影响并不显著。主动/反思型学习风格只影响面授模式,但对同步和异步两种在线模式的影响不显著。一些学习风格维度通过三种 HyFlex 学习模式对公平产生间接影响。面对面学习和在线异步学习很好地调解了学习风格与公平之间的间接关系。本研究将为讲师、教育工作者和开发人员提供有价值的理解,以便根据费尔德-西尔弗曼学习风格的积极维度调整和开发 HyFlex 学习策略,从而支持公平和全纳学习。本研究为研究人员在今后的研究中调查更多可改善 HyFlex 学习的建构因素奠定了基础。原创性/价值本研究率先使用学习风格调查三种 HyFlex 学习模式的使用趋势,尤其强调可提供公平学习的模式。

期刊介绍: Interactive Technology and Smart Education (ITSE) is a multi-disciplinary, peer-reviewed journal, which provides a distinct forum to specially promote innovation and participative research approaches. The following terms are defined, as used in the context of this journal: -Interactive Technology refers to all forms of digital technology, as described above, emphasizing innovation and human-/user-centred approaches. -Smart Education "SMART" is used as an acronym that refers to interactive technology that offers a more flexible and tailored approach to meet diverse individual requirements by being “Sensitive, Manageable, Adaptable, Responsive and Timely” to educators’ pedagogical strategies and learners’ educational and social needs’. -Articles are invited that explore innovative use of educational technologies that advance interactive technology in general and its applications in education in particular. The journal aims to bridge gaps in the field by promoting design research, action research, and continuous evaluation as an integral part of the development cycle of usable solutions/systems.
