Abstract

This study determines and analyzes the learning styles and multiple intelligences of the selected Bachelor of Science in Business Administration students of the University of San Carlos. The respondents answered the VARK Learning Styles Test questionnaires and McKenzie’s (1999) Multiple Intelligence Survey. The results of this study provide implications for pedagogy, teaching styles, curriculum, and workbook preparation, especially in Purposive Communication intended for School of Business and Economics students.
