A NARRATIVE REVIEW OF RESEARCH ON LEARNING STYLES AND COGNITIVE STRATEGIES

The aim of this article is to analyze the existing e-learning environment and to detect the different learning styles of an individual. In general, the e-learning system provides assistance to the learner’s in terms of providing learning contents that spans from textual information to multimedia information. Though the existing system tries to maximize the aptitude of learning in users, it fails to act in a dynamic way. To bring the dynamic nature into the system, the learning behavior of an individual has to be modeled. In order to expedite the process, it is necessary to automate the process of detecting learning style based on the learning behavior. This paper attempts to uncover the specialties of the existing e-learning learning style models and cognitive strategies towards understanding and proposing the learning style for the learners based on the popular Felder Silverman Learning Style Model (FSLSM) learning input and dimensions
