Abstract

This study focused on the relationship between learning styles, online behaviors and group collaborations. Sixty junior students from a university in China were taken as research object. Index of Learning Styles was used as a measuring tool to test participants' learning styles. Relationships between variables were measured by using bi-variate correlations analysis and one-way analysis of variance respectively. The results revealed a meaningful relationship between learning styles and online collaborative behavior. In addition, groups' online collaborative performances could be significantly different. However, grouping by learning styles might not be the factor that make effects on group collaborations.
