Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on education, resulting in a transition from traditional face-to-face classes to online classes. This present study investigated learners' class preferences based on their learning styles, comparing face-to-face, real-time online, and recorded online classes. Furthermore, the interviews were conducted to collect the perceived qualities of a “quality class” based on classroonm features as experienced by students. The participants' learning styles were assessed using Felder and Solomon's Index of Learning Styles Questionnaire and Among the 12 female participants, 10 different learning styles were identified. All participants expressed a preference for face-to-face classes mainly due to the opportunities for mutual interaction. In particular, Reflective, Sensing, and Visual learning styles were more frequently observed. Participants with strong sensing-style preferred the way the instructors used examples of language use, while visual-style learners showed a preference for visual aids such as PowerPoint materials. However, some learners found that their preferred styles did not always align with the class format. Most learners favored receiving detailed assessment rubrics and feedback in class and instructors who shared their experiences. Further research on a larger scale is needed to explore the relationships between learning styles, gender, major, and subject. This research could contribute to the development of more learner-centered class designs.
