Flores, Margaret M.; Hinton, Vanessa M. – Education and Treatment of Children, 2019
Recent multiplication with regrouping research shows that the combination of the concrete-representational-abstract (CRA) sequence and the Strategic Instruction Model (SIM) has been effective in several studies. More evidence is needed to demonstrate CRA-SIM's effectiveness across settings and students. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to…

Wyner, Yael; Doherty, Jennifer H. – Science Education, 2017
This paper examines how students make progress toward three-dimensional (3D) understanding of the patterns of evolution. Specifically, it proposes a learning progression that explains how scientific practices, crosscutting concepts, and disciplinary core ideas come together in naming and grouping, length of change over time, and the role of common…

Lemmer, Miriam – Africa Education Review, 2018
Science teaching and learning require knowledge about how learning takes place (cognition) and how learners interact with their surroundings (affective and sociocultural factors). The study reported on focussed on learning for understanding of Newton's second law of motion from a cognitive perspective that takes social factors into account. A…

Tillema, H. – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 1982
An experiment on sequence procedures for presenting text materials to pupils demonstrated that web sequencing (presenting concepts as related parts of a network) resulted in better test performance than linear sequencing. Information processing strategies used by pupils did not influence either the sequence of information presentation or test…

Anastasio, John – 1973
A study was devised to determine the efficacy of picture sequencing as a method of evaluating a child's interaction with a film, particularly children who are low in verbal expression. A series of five photographs were used which illustrated important points in a film about the ill effects of smoking. Subjects were selected from two primary…

Brown, John Seely; And Others – 1977
Different kinds of basic knowledge and strategies necessary for comprehension are examined in three radically different domains: (1) the stories, (2) mathematical problems, and (3) electronic circuits. From analyzing the comprehension processes in these different domains, similarities have emerged in the role of planning knowledge and the…

Dyck, Jennifer L.; Mayer, Richard E. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1989
Computer-naive university students (N=124) were taught the BASIC programing language by solving and receiving feedback on program comprehension problems stated in BASIC or on corresponding problems stated in English followed by problems stated in BASIC. Results support a sequential method of instruction beginning with use of natural language…

Gray, Susan H. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1987
Reviews study of 80 undergraduate sociology students which compared the effects of two types of sequencing in computer assisted instruction: (1) linear, or fixed, and (2) flip, or branching. Results indicate that students in the flip sequence condition performed better on comprehension measures but not on retention measures. (Author/LRW)

Carbon - Lehigh Intermediate Unit, Schnecksville, PA. – 1978
The second of three skill sequence manuals for special education students considers the development of language arts. Objectives are listed sequentially for the following major areas (sample subcategories in parentheses): classification (listening/speaking, sorting, grouping); comprehension (affective, factual recall, following directions,…

Bricker, Diane; And Others – 1973
Presented in the second of a two volume series is a language training program for developmentally delayed children from infancy to development of grammatically appropriate sentences. The second volume is said to have been developed in the Infant, Toddler, and Preschool Research and Intervention Project (Tennessee) and to focus on training the…

COOK, H. ROBERT – 1967
ALTHOUGH ADMINISTRATIVE DIFFICULTIES COMPELLED A 2-PHASED PROJECT, BEGUN AT INDIANA UNIVERSITY IN THE 1966-67 ACADEMIC YEAR, TO BE TERMINATED BEFORE ANY CONCLUSIVE DATA HAD BEEN GATHERED, SOME OF THE OBSERVATIONS MADE DURING THE INITIAL STAGE OF THE EXPERIMENT MIGHT PROVOKE NEEDED FURTHER INVESTIGATION. THE PILOT RUN, DESIGNED TO DEVELOP MATERIALS…

Gray, Susan H. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1988
Discussion of control over sequence of instruction in computer-assisted instruction (CAI) focuses on a follow-up study that examined the effects of the breadth and depth of menus and the meaningfulness of menu category names on the learning and attitudes of college students. Posttests are described, and results are analyzed. (16 references) (LRW)
