How to provide better knowledge creation and diffusion in mechanical engineering : the DLSI as a vehicle

Avsec, Stanislav (avtor), Szewczyk-Zakrzewska, Agnieszka (avtor)

The purpose of this study was twofold: to investigate the learning styles of students within the field of mechanical engineering (the main discipline for considering the generation of patent applications), and to determine the effectiveness of student learning styles as a means of predicting student performance. Different modalities of learning styles were investigated using a new dynamic learning style inventory (DSLI), which gave valid and reliable coverage of student learning styles and approaches to studying. Students’ learning styles were compared and analysed using a two-sample study of 165 undergraduate and graduate mechanical engineering students from the University of Ljubljana, Slovenia, and 192 students from Cracow University of Technology, Kraków, Poland. Traditional lectures, teaching approaches and strategies do not allow active students to be more creative, whereas dynamic learning environments enhance students’ performance and boost self-motivation.
