Stewart, Karen L.; Felicetti, Linda A. – Educational Research Quarterly, 1992
Results from a Gregorc Style Delineator completed by 99 underclass business majors, 65 upperclass business majors in an area other than marketing, and 101 marketing majors show that the dominant learning styles for upperdivision marketing students were Concrete Sequential and Abstract Random. Implications for instruction are discussed. (SLD)

Meheut, Martine; Psillos, Dimitris – International Journal of Science Education, 2004
One notable line of inquiry, aspects of which date back to the early 1980s, involves the design and implementation not of long-term curricula, but of topic-oriented sequences for teaching science. One distinguishing characteristic of a teaching-learning sequence (TLS) is its inclusion in a gradual research-based volutionary process aiming at…

Black, Charles B.; Wright, David L.; Magnuson, Curt E.; Brueckner, Sebastian – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2005
Three experiments assessed the possibility that a physical practice participant 's ability to render appropriate movement timing estimates may be hindered compared to those who merely observed. Results from these experiments revealed that observers and physical practice participants executed and estimated the overall durations of movement…

Wallsten, Thomas S.; Pleskac, Timothy J.; Lejuez, C. W. – Psychological Review, 2005
This article models the cognitive processes underlying learning and sequential choice in a risk-taking task for the purposes of understanding how they occur in this moderately complex environment and how behavior in it relates to self-reported real-world risk taking. The best stochastic model assumes that participants incorrectly treat outcome…

Lima, Andre O. S.; Garces, Sergio P. S. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2006
Bioinformatics is one of the fastest growing scientific areas over the last decade. It focuses on the use of informatics tools for the organization and analysis of biological data. An example of their importance is the availability nowadays of dozens of software programs for genomic and proteomic studies. Thus, there is a growing field (private…

Possel, Patrick; Seemann, Simone; Ahrens, Stefanie; Hautzinger, Martin – Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 2006
In Dodge's model of "social information processing" depression is the result of a linear sequence of five stages of information processing ("Annu Rev Psychol" 44: 559-584, 1993). These stages follow a person's reaction to situational stimuli, such that each stage of information processing mediates the relationship between earlier and later stages.…

Inhoff, Albrecht W.; Radach, Ralph; Eiter, Brianna – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2006
A. Pollatsek, E. D. Reichle, and K. Rayner argue that the critical findings in A. W. Inhoff, B. M. Eiter, and R. Radach are in general agreement with core assumptions of sequential attention shift models if additional assumptions and facts are considered. The current authors critically discuss the hypothesized time line of processing and indicate…

Tennyson, Robert D.; And Others – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1975
The strategy variables investigated were: 1) sequence, a presentation of instances according to a defined relationship of the stimuli--organized versus random; and 2) analytical explanation, a verbal statement presented with each instance which analyzed the presence or absence of the critical attributes. Concept learning implications were…

Robertson, W. W.; Richardson, E. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 1975
Studies of the hierarchical attainment of conservation of physics concepts revealed significant differences with respect to age, sex, and grade level in a random sample of seventh and eighth grade students. Conservation of a quantity did not necessarily depend on the prior conservation of its constituent fundamental quantities. (MLH)

Ellicott, Barbara Ann – 1989
This brief biographical sketch of Maria Montessori focuses on her philosophy of learning and her methods of teaching. Her holistic approach to education is discussed in the light of its impact on educational theories and practices in the early 1900s. Included in this discussion is a description of her theories, such as the developmental stages of…

Klauer, Elizabeth; Rule, Ann – 1985
Structuring the algebra course to provide a link between a student's existing knowledge and the new topic being presented is discussed. Developing relationships among topics is suggested through examples describing a mathematical problem and effective teaching approaches. Stress is placed on teachers reflecting on mistakes pupils are likely to…

Ausburn, Lynna J.; Ausburn, Floyd B. – 1978
This study was designed to examine relationships between three variables of analysis/integration skill in visual perception and the tendency to retain differentiated memories of sequential visual images in a sample of 206 university undergraduates. Correlation techniques and factor analysis were used to analyze relationships between the perceptual…

Witt, Judy Proff; Gibson, Jorie – 1979
The paper describes a multisensory technique which involves an individualized, sequential plan of instruction for the handicapped student. The multisensory technique is explained to involve three tasks in its developmental sequence--identification, naming, and writing. The technique is applied to the case of a student whose errors on the Key Math…
