SOLER-CONTRERAS, Manuel Guillermo; CARDENAS-SALGADO, Fidel Antonio; HERNANDEZ-PINA, Fuensanta  and  MONROY-HERNANDEZ, Fuensanta. Approaches to Learning and Teaching: Origin and Evolution. educ.educ. [online]. 2017, vol.20, n.1, pp.65-88. ISSN 0123-1294.  https://doi.org/10.5294/edu.2017.20.1.4.

The article documents the origin and evolution of the “Student Approach to Learning” (SAL). This trend in research began with the Gothenburg School then spread to Edinburgh and Australia. The ground-breaking authors and their studies are highlighted, and emphasis is given to the pioneering research that was done in Spain, in the Spanish language. This study provides a solid background that should serve as a basis for researchers in Colombia and Latin America who want to emulate what was done in SAL, as well as the pioneering research that was produced in Spain.

Keywords : Learning approaches; teaching approaches; phenomenography; teaching theories; didactic research.
