Abstract:
Within two Flemish institutes of pre-service and inservice teacher education, the relationship between the learning styles
and preferences for learning environments of pre-service teachers were examined. Results indicate that some components of
pre-service teachers' learning approaches (learning conceptions, learning strategies and learning orientations) are predictors
for preferences for constructivist learning environments. Differences in learning approaches and preferences for learning
environments are also related to the type of teacher education that pre-service teachers followed.
