Making good use of initiative of self- learning is the core element to help students in subjects learning, we constantly improve and perfect teaching concepts and classroom teaching mode to create the space for students to learn and explore actively, make personalized study according to their own characteristics, we make students experience the interest of freedom, autonomy, inquiry learning, enjoy the delight of appearance of personality and vitality of the burst of life vigor. Combining personal teaching experience, we should explore the way to led art students to learn with initiative in principle theoretical classes of their major.展开更多

The test has also been utilized in academia to enhance instructor＇s knowledge of the different learning styles and thus allows them to develop strategies to increase students＇ learning. The test is a forced-choice self-reporting exam comprised of 126 questions. Based on Jung＇s theory of personality type, the test seeks to categorize personality types into 16 discrete groups based on the four preference poles （Myers, 1962）. The poles are based on the preference for： （1） introversion （I） or extroversion （E）; （2） sensing （S） or intuition （N）; （3） thinking （T） or feeling （F）; and （4）judging （J） or perception （P）. Laribee （1994） studied American accounting students and found that certain personality traits were over represented in upper-level accounting courses, while Macdaid, McCaulley, and Kainz （1986） found that the same personality trait groups were over-represented in the profession. Oswick and Barber （1998）, however, found no significant relationship between the grade earned in an introductory accounting course and the personality traits as identified by the MBTI with 344 UK-based accounting students. This study investigates the relationship between a student＇s academic success in a financial accounting principles course and the MBTI personality type indicators. The type distribution of 59 historically black colleges and universities＇ （HBCU） business administration majors was analyzed and separated into two groups. The groups were then tested to determine if there was a significant difference in the mean grade of the groups in accounting principles.展开更多
