A Methodology for the Development of Distance Learning Tasks Adaptable to the Student's Learning Style☆

Abstract Today, we are currently experiencing a time of constant evolution in the field of education in which students require more resources and tools to obtain the information and construction of knowledge. One such resource is the use of distance learning environments, where the teacher assigns additional activities for the understanding of the concepts seen before. But there are times when the student does not understand the material because of the form it is represented, making it necessary to have more options to facilitate the understanding of content through different ways that may be more attractive to the student, achieving more active participation in the subject and an affinity that leads to a better learning experience. This is the goal of the present research, which proposes a methodology for designing distance learning tasks adaptable to the student's learning style.
