| Summary: | Learning is a process of seeking knowledge in a very creative way. The process varies among
students. Different subjects have different techniques in learning. This study will identify the
suitability of learning styles focusing on programming subject for novice users. We choose the
most established learning model, which is VARK Model to find the best approach on students’
learning styles. VARK stands for Visual (V), Aural (A), Read/Write (R), and Kinaesthetic (K).
We concentrate on three learning styles, which are Visual, Auditory, and Kinaesthetic, and on
how it influences student’s enthusiasm in learning programming. The results show that the
students prefer active learning that involves face-to-face interaction in order to understand the
programming course across the three mentioned learning styles. Hence, this creates significant
challenge to apply blended learning method in this course |
