Material-Appropriate Processing: Implications for Remediating Recall Deficits in Students with Learning Disabilities.

McDaniel, Mark A.; And Others

Learning Disability Quarterly, v13 n4 p258-68 Fall 1990

The article examines whether the material-appropriate processing approach can anticipate and explain the mnemonic effects of elaborative encoding tasks and study adjuncts for less able learners. Evidence suggests that less able learners are not capable of spontaneously exploiting the affordances of the to-be-learned material without appropriate study instructions or adjuncts. (Author/DB)
