Cognitive Styles and Technology-Based Education
نویسنده
چکیده
This article discusses the elements and implications of cognitive style and a study of students in postsecondary industrial technology and vocational education programs that relates several areas where cognitive styles may influence instructional design. Technology education, industrial technology, industrial arts, and vocational education programs are some of the mechanisms by which secondary students gain an interest in pursuing a technology-oriented career. To some extent, each of these programs acts as a feeder for twoand four-year college programs. The selection of a career path often determines the type of college a student will enter. For example, a student interested in becoming an electronics technician may enter a two-year technical program while a student interested in designing electronic systems may enter a four-year program, such as engineering.
