Learning styles that impact administrative or management education oriented towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Abstract
Various investigations have documented the correlation between learning styles and the academic performance of students, but there is a lack of studies that relate them to the administration subjects oriented to the SDGs. This study aims to assess learning styles and determine which ones favor the sustainable development approach. A survey was applied to 388 university level students. A predictive statistical model was established to help actors in the education sector make decisions that benefit the UN SDGs, in administrative matters. It was found that the learning styles with the greatest weight in SDG-oriented training are the assimilating and adaptive learning styles.
