Abstract: | Following presentation of a slide-tape instructional program, the performance of subjects in two learning strategy groups-networking
and rote-was compared to a control group on a concept learning task and a spatial learning task. Networking proved more effective
than rote learning and the control group on both tasks; networking also allowed for improved retention over time (in this
case, one week). This article reviews some of the research on learning strategies and suggests how the network strategy can
enhance learning in academic situations. |
