Main Idea Comprehension: Training Teachers and Effects on Students.
Carriedo, N.; Alonso-Tapia, J.
Journal of Research in Reading, v19 n2 p128-53 Sep 1996
Investigates the effectiveness of main idea identification training by teachers who had been successfully trained in such identification. Finds that the experimental group of students (in grades six, seven, and eight) performed better than the control group on main idea identification and knowledge of strategies related to that process. Discusses theoretical implications about the variables mediating the process of main idea identification. (RS)
