碩士 === 國立臺灣藝術大學 === 舞蹈學系 === 102 === This study aims to explore the learning style preferences of dance students in grades three to six in elementary schools by using the David Kolb “Learning Style Questionnaire” ，translated by Chu, Mei-Ling in 2003, taking such background variables as the students’ level or grade, the age when they learned dance, whether they participate in dance tutorials, favorite technical subjects and others as independent variables and four types of learning styles as dependent variables, in order to understand the learning style preferences of dance students with different backgrounds for analysis. The study results show that, for the subjects’ learning style type distribution, the divergence type accounts for the largest number with a total of 37 people (38.1%); followed by the assimilation type with a total of 31 people (32.0%); adaptation type accounts for a total of 16 people (16.5%); convergence type accounts for a total of 13 people (13.4%). The results of the study are as follows: First, for learning style distribution, the divergence type has the highest percentage, followed by assimilation type and adaptation type, with the adaptation type being at a minimum. Second, students in the third grade who have learned dance for more than three years but less than five years, have participated in dance tutorials and like Chinese dance, their learning style is more inclined towards the divergence type. Third, students in the fourth grade who have learned dance for more than three years but less than five years, have participated in dance tutorials and like ballet, their learning style is more inclined towards the assimilation type. Fourth, students in the fifth grade who have learned dance for more than five years, have participated in dance tutorials and like modern dance, their learning style is more inclined towards the adaptation type. Fifth, students in the sixth grade who have learned dance for more than five years, have participated in dance tutorials, and like improvisation, their learning style is more inclined towards the convergence type.
