Abstract
In this study the main purpose is to
explore relations between students' learning strategies and their motivational
patterns in the course Introduction to Economic Statistics of University of
Oviedo. The course Introduction to Economic Statistics is a basic training in a
Business Administration degree. It is a common course for the degrees in
Economics, Accounting and Finance and Labour Relations and Human Resources,
which are also part of the course catalogue of the School of Economics and
Business. The course has no prerequisites. It is recommended that the student
should be competent in mathematics, in any of its options at secondary (high
school) level. The evaluation of the course is based on continuous assessment
throughout the course and final exam. The results of final grades are very
different between the four degrees. In this study, the differences between the
learning and motivational patterns employed by the students of the degrees are
analyzed. The correlations of motivation and learning strategies with final
grades and/or continuous assessment are exposed. The data were collected
thorough the Learning Strategies and Motivation Questionnaire. Participants
were 169 undergraduates. The results about the disparities between grades could
be useful to correct teaching practices and evaluation performances in some
grades.
