Abstract

This study was designed to determine whether a match between instructors' teaching styles and students' learning styles would foster student success as evidenced by higher course grades and final exam scores. Further, student evaluations of instructors were examined to determine whether a match between instructors' teaching styles and students' learning styles would yield more positive evaluations of instructor effectiveness. Study participants included five business instructors and 99 students from two community colleges. There was no significant relationship between learning style/teaching style match and student success as indicated by course grades, final exam scores, and evaluations of instructors. A significant relationship existed, however, between course grades, final exam scores, instructor evaluations, and GPA.
