Luthfi’s Review Understanding Student Differences Part 3


Hello there, fellow English Education Students! Welcome to the third review of Understanding Student Differences. Last week we have talked about the ‘blue print’ about what this journal going to be, we all know this journal will speak 3 important key points which are:
Learning Style
Approaches to Learning and Orientation to Studying
Intellectual Development
However, on this occasion we will talk about the methodology of this journal, yup before going deep into the journal we must know what methods did Professor Richard used for this journal? Knowing its methodology surely will help us understand the journal comprehensively. So, put your attention and check it out!

The journal will describe how student learn and their determined skill by it through variety of assessment, the assessment result will be considered as data later on. The data is indeed guaranteed to be reliable and valid which means there will be consistent result whether if the test has been repeated and the purpose of the data has serve its purpose properly.

The journal will use Olds, Moskal, and Miller analysis on data reliability and validity, which are:
Text-retest reliability: This will be a proper tool to test the stability of the data and research
Internal consistency reliability: Data should be correlated relationship with the main purpose of the journal with the necessary quantities.
Scale orthogonality: the scales for the instrument to test the reliability and validity of the data are independent
Construct validity: The instrument will indeed has a relevant result exactly like the purpose of this journal.

Also, in each point of this journal, Professor Richard will offer us a future research question that could be our inspiration to choose what topic you should choose for your research? For example, in the end of Learning Styles section, as you can see, Professor Richard has given us 11 eleven further study questions; indeed this journal will be helpful for all of us. Good luck!
