Diagnostic assessments are intended to support teachers' instructional decision making by providing instructionally relevant information. In this article, we propose that using cognitive theories of learning to design diagnostic assessments can provide teachers with two diagnostic outcomes: (a) the location of a student's thinking within the…

Bussey, Thomas J. – ProQuest LLC, 2013
Biochemistry education relies heavily on students' ability to visualize abstract cellular and molecular processes, mechanisms, and components. As such, biochemistry educators often turn to external representations to provide tangible, working models from which students' internal representations (mental models) can be constructed, evaluated, and…

Peer reviewedPeat, D.; And Others – Instructional Science, 1989
Describes an instructional model, Strategies Program for Effective Learning/Thinking (SPELT), that was developed to translate cognitive psychological theory and research into a practical instructional program. The extent to which SPELT conforms to current instructional design principles is examined, and macro versus micro instructional sequencing…

McKeen, Ronald L.; Eisenberg, Theodore A. – Improving Human Performance, 1973
A discussion of student-generated hierarchies developed for a mathematics objective by several small groups and validated on a second group. About 40 percent of the student-generated hierarchies were validated indicating that student input can be obtained to produce useful learning hierarchies. (Author)
