Petchauer, Emery – Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, 2011
College campuses have become rich sites of hip-hop culture and knowledge production. Despite the attention that campus personnel and researchers have paid to student life, the field of higher education has often misunderstood the ways that hip-hop culture exists in college students' lives. Based upon in-depth interviews, observations of…

Meyer, Jan H. F. – Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 2004
The Reflections on Learning Inventory (RoLI) is an instrument designed to capture variation in students' engagement of learning--typically in a given disciplinary context or topic-specific 'episode'. Although the RoLI has been employed as a research instrument in a number of published studies on the modelling of student learning in higher…

Berent, Gerald P. – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1996
This article explores 46 deaf college students' knowledge of English wh-question formation in the context of government-binding theory and an associated learnability theory. Results of two learnability tasks revealed that, despite years of exposure to English language input, many deaf learners had not internalized the positive evidence required to…

Canelos, James; And Others – 1984
This study investigated the research construct of encoding specificity using an applied research orientation. Encoding specificity considers the effects on memory of the interactive relationship among encoding, the stored memory trace, and external retrieval cues. Subjects were 273 undergraduate students enrolled in the College of Engineering at…

Ratcliff, James L.; And Others – 1991
Using the Cluster Analytic Model (CAM), two samples of graduating seniors from Georgia State University were studied to determine the effect of different patterns of college course work on their general learned abilities. The CAM uses Student Achievement Test scores, Graduate Record Examination scores, and transcripts for course work patterns.…

Hult, Richard E., Jr.; And Others – 1984
The study examined the encoding function in student note taking in relationship to learning from a university lecture. It was expected that note taking effectiveness would be positively related to learning; and, that the notes of high and low effective note takers would differ significantly. After pretesting, a 551-word lecture on research methods…

Kaiser, Mary Kister; And Others – Developmental Psychology, 1986
Examines the development of intuitive theories of motion among college students and children between the ages of 4 and 12. School-aged children made more erroneous predictions on the path a ball takes upon exiting a curved tube than preschoolers, kindergarteners, and college students. Results related to the "growth error." (Author/BB)

Sparks, Richard; And Others – Annals of Dyslexia, 1989
A theoretical framework is presented for understanding difficulties in foreign language learning, based upon a linguistic coding model that hypothesizes deficits in phonological, syntactic, and semantic information processing. Incidence of linguistic coding problems in 22 college-enrolled or college-bound students who petitioned to have the…

Ryan, Michael P. – 1982
A study was conducted to determine (1) the nature and range of self-testing procedures that college students use to monitor their reading comprehension; (2) whether their epistomological beliefs influence the nature of their comprehension monitoring procedures; and (3) whether the level of processing dictated by the test component of their reading…

Birdsong, David; And Others – 1984
Three studies comparing the respective roles of interlanguage universals and natural language transfer in determining learners' judgments of grammaticality used college students of French in their second, third, and fourth semesters as subjects. In the first experiment, the subjects were exposed to both grammatical and four types of ungrammatical…

Moon, Charles E.; And Others – 1985
As consciousness becomes a more viable field of investigation and research, more attempts are being made to examine states of consciousness and their effects on certain abilities. A meta-analysis was used to examine the state of relaxation and its effects on learning, performance, and academic achievement. A search of PsychINFO, the data base of…

Biggs, John B. – 1987
This manual describes the theory behind the Study Process Questionnaire (SPQ) and explains what the subscale and scale scores mean. The SPQ is a 42-item self-report questionnaire used in Australia to assess the extent to which a tertiary student at a college or university endorses different approaches to learning and the motives and strategies…

Merritt, Frank M.; McCallum, Steve – 1983
The Luria-Das Information Processing Model of human learning holds that information is analysed and coded within the brain in either a simultaneous or a successive fashion. Simultaneous integration refers to the synthesis of separate elements into groups, often with spatial characteristics; successive integration means that information is…

Entwistle, Noel – 1994
In an effort to further explore the experience of understanding from the university perspective, this study examined how British students' understanding was refined and committed to memory during preparation for final examinations. After piloting an interviewing procedure, in-depth interviews were conducted with eleven students from psychology…
