Multiple embodiment is explained and discussed, with activities described that might be used to develop concepts in geometry and in arithmetic. A series of questions is raised about the choice, use, and organization of embodiments; suggestions for action research are made. (DT)

Results suggested that it may be possible to seek most efficient'' strategies for given tasks, and possibly, conditionally'' most efficient strategies for individual ability profiles. (Author)

Evaluation, learning and instruction are complex and inter-related processes. A sound philosophy and methodology of evaluation demands that evaluation be considered in context. (Author)

Article discusses innovative educational approaches to teaching music to learning-disabled children. (Author/MM)

Examines the relationships between mental maturity and achievement in three types of science concepts-classificational, correlational, and theoretical. (AL)

The effects of massed, distributed, and spaced trials sequencing on the learning of handicapped and nonhandicapped individuals for both cognitive and motor tasks are discussed. Implications for the application of the research findings to the classroom for the severely handicapped individual are presented. (Author)

Reports results of an experiment involving a hydranencephalic infant lacking cerebral hemispheres and a normal twin in testing for associative learning. Cardiac orienting responses to stimulus omission indicated that learning had taken place in both infants. (CS)

Learning climates were generated by students with different achievement styles through small group interactions around tasks at different times in the quarter. Climates were found to be complex interactions among achievement styles, tasks, group composition, and time. (Author/GK)

The relationship between students' study processes and the structural complexity of their learning is examined. Study processes are viewed in terms of three dimensions and are assessed by a questionnaire. Learning quality is expressed in levels of a taxonomy. A study that relates taxonomic levels and retention to study processes is reported.…

Based on evaluation of an Open University independent study course used in a conventional setting at the University of Essex, this paper focuses on: the relationship of the student's choice of learning strategy with the requirements of the task; the student's ability to adapt his strategy; task restrictions; and the student's view of learning.…

Finds significant correlations between scores on vocabulary tests and tests of syntax and morphology, suggesting two major second language learning factors (grammar and vocabulary/phonological ability). Relates these results to hypotheses concerning individual differences in strategies of first and second language learning. (Author/RL)
