Early Child Development and Care, v143 p1-20 Apr 1998
Two studies investigated effects of a cognitive early education program on teachers' use of mediated learning strategies and kindergartner's cognitive modifiability and task-intrinsic motivation. Study 1 found that teachers with program experience used more mediation than nonexperienced teachers. Study 2 found that program children improved cognitive task performance and showed higher motivation than control peers. (JPB)
