| Summary: | This research raised spirituality in education from the research on Spirituality in Higher
Education by Higher Education Research Institute (HERI), and integrates spiritual qualities
with Kolb’s Learning Styles. Parallel with Malaysia Education Blueprint (MEB) 2015-2015
for Higher Education (MEB (HE)), a transformation of education is needed to create holistic
students with balanced ethics and knowledge. 378 undergraduates were selected as research
participants with cluster sampling from all faculties and centres in UNIMAS. A questionnaire
combined with adapted College Students’ Beliefs and Values (CSBV) and Kolb Learning
Style Inventory version 3.1 (KLSI 3.1) was used to measure participants’ spiritual qualities
and learning styles. Majority of participants practice Ecumenical Worldview and are
Convergers. There is a weak relationship between all spiritual qualities and learning styles.
Spiritual Quest, Equanimity, and Charitable Involvement share a positive relationship with
learning styles. Linguistics, Communication Studies and Cognitive Sciences students are
Assimilators with most balanced spiritual qualities and are the second most frequent group of
learners. |
