A Study of the Effects of Outlining and Networking on College Students' Comprehension and Retention of Expository Text.
Iovino, Suzanne F.
Research and Teaching in Developmental Education, v10 n1 p43-64 Fall 1993
Compares the effects on college students in a study skills course of five hours of instruction in outlining; networking, a form graphically organizing materials; and memory techniques and library research. Though all groups showed improvement in comprehension and retention of texts, the outlining group doubled the gains realized by the others. Contains 62 references. (MAB)
