description This article is addressed to identify the learning styles observed in students of the Wayuu ethnic group, from public universities in the department of La Guajira, Colombia. From the methodological context, the study is characterized as descriptive with a quantitative approach. The sample consisted of 210 students selected through an intentional sampling of the institutions: Universidad de la Guajira (Uniguajira), and Universidad Nacional Abierta y a Distancia (UNAD). The results show that: active, reflective and pragmatic learning styles, predominate in the students under study; and to a lesser extent, the theoretical style is present. It is concluded that learning styles are not mutually exclusive, since a combination or alternation of these can occur in order to achieve high value learning, at different times, contexts or circumstances.

El presente artículo busca identificar los estilos de aprendizaje que se observan en los estudiantes de la etnia wayuu, de las universidades públicas del departamento de la Guajira, Colombia. En el contexto metodológico, el estudio se caracteriza como descriptivo con enfoque cuantitativo. La muestra estuvo constituida por 210 estudiantes seleccionados mediante un muestreo intencional, de las instituciones: Universidad de la Guajira (Uniguajira) y Universidad Nacional Abierta y a Distancia (UNAD). Los resultados demuestran que los estilos de aprendizaje predominantes, son: activo, reflexivo y pragmático; y en menor proporción, se hace presente el estilo teórico. Se concluye que los estilos de aprendizaje no resultan excluyentes entre sí, ya que puede producirse una combinación o alternancia de estos, con el fin de lograr el aprendizaje de alto valor en diferentes momentos, contextos o circunstancias.
