Krahn, Corrie G.; Blanchaer, Marcel C. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1986
This study investigated the efficacy of using the advance organizer as a device to improve medical students' understanding of a clinical case simulation on the microcomputer and to enhance performance on a posttest. Advance organizers were found to be effective and most consistent with Mayer's assimilation theory. (MBR)
