By comparing these two styles/approaches, the intent is to determine if there are any correlations with respect to the way that they are applied in class/lesson activities. Two student Research Assistants will work on the redevelopment and adaptation of a comprehensive online Inventories that are used to understand how university students and professors apply their communication and learning approaches within a classroom setting (Educators` Application of Their Learning and Communication Styles (EALCS) Inventory (Mazo, 2008)). Also, a new website for this research study will be developed for the longitudinal project.
