HURTADO OSORIO, Gladys Elena. Effect of active teaching strategies in the attitudes towards chemistry and their interaction with cognitive style. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2015, vol.11, n.2, pp.245-259. ISSN 1794-9998.  https://doi.org/10.15332/s1794-9998.2015.0002.06.

This article shows and analyzes the effects on attitudes towards learning chemistry with the application of three didactic teaching strategies (problem-based learning -PBL-, guided discovery learning -ADG- and teaching for understanding -EPC-) in three groups of high school students, differentiated by their cognitive style field dependence-independence. In order to study the attitudes, the IAQ tool was used for determining attitudes in three dimensions: emotional, attitudinal and cognitive. The results showed among others a significant correlation between attitudes on cognitive and cognitive style dimension DIC.

Keywords : attitudes; DIC cognitive styles; teaching strategies; teaching for understanding; problem-based learning; guided discovery learning.
