Abstract

The new and active learning environment in tertiary education is forcing academics to discuss the effectiveness of traditional teaching strategies that address the diverse learning styles of engineering students. A number of personality type indicators have been used in the past to determine students various learning styles. This paper introduces the Enneagram as a new tool to determine the student's learning style. The Enneagram can also be used to describe psychological preferences of engineering educators.
