LEARNING STYLES AND DISTANCE EDUCATORS

Abstract

The Tutor Education Centre in New Zealand provides education for educators of adults. After restructuring of the New Zealand Open Polytechnic which resulted in a flatter management structure the centre was asked to provide management training for tutors. The learning styles questionnaire was used as a basis and shared a high incidence of the reflector and theorist categories. The exercise increased participants′ self‐awareness and highlighted the need for change so as to make a success of their new management roles.
