The Effectiveness of Teaching Science with Pictorial Analogies.
Lin, Huann-shyang; And Others
Research in Science Education, v26 n4 p495-511 1996
This study uses a conceptual problem-solving test to investigate the effect of a series of pictorial analogies on the concepts of density, pressure, and atmospheric pressure in Year Eight classrooms. Findings indicate that students taught with the pictorial analogies scored significantly higher than their counterparts. Low achievers were the most apt to benefit from this teaching strategy. (AIM)
