Abstract Distance Education (DE) associated with the use of Virtual Learning Environments (VLE) as interaction tools between the student and the educator has become a large research niche spread around the world. Techniques to improve learning effectiveness in VLEs seek to find relation-ships connections between pedagogical advances and educational technological resources available in VLEs. In this context, this work sought to associate the theory of Learning Styles with the behavior of the student of Distance Education, observing their interaction with the Virtual Learning Environment and trying to associate them with their learning style identified by the CHAEA questionnaire. For this purpose, the CHAEA questionnaire was applied to a group of distance learning students and the correlation between their interactions with VLE and their learning styles was verified. The results show that there is no correlation between these elements, which may show, in fact, the lack of coherence between these theories. Seeking a model for data, a linear regression was applied and the results were, then, confirmed.

应用于远程学习的学习风格理论

摘要 与使用虚拟学习环境 (VLE) 作为学生和教育者之间的交互工具相关的远程教育 (DE) 已成为遍布全球的大型研究领域。提高 VLE 学习效率的技术试图找到 VLE 中可用的教学进步和教育技术资源之间的关系。在这种情况下，这项工作试图将学习风格理论与远程教育学生的行为联系起来，观察他们与虚拟学习环境的互动，并试图将它们与 CHAEA 调查问卷确定的学习风格联系起来。以此目的，CHAEA 问卷被应用于一组远程学习学生，并验证了他们与 VLE 的互动与他们的学习风格之间的相关性。结果表明，这些要素之间没有相关性，这实际上可能表明这些理论之间缺乏连贯性。寻找数据模型，应用线性回归，然后确认结果。
