Multiple Pedagogical Reforms Implemented in a University Science Class to Address Diverse Learning Styles

Journal of College Science Teaching—November/December 2008

In an attempt to increase student success in the physical sciences, the authors implemented a system of multiple education reforms in their general chemistry courses to reach diverse learning styles. Results from the study indicated that the reforms significantly improved grades and decreased attrition. The success of the pedagogical reforms is believed to be due to two factors: reaching diverse learning styles by incorporating multiple methods of learning and by including active learning strategies. The reforms described in this paper could be implemented in many science and mathematics classes.
