Talking and Learning in Pairs: A Comparison of Two Interactive Modes for Six and Seven Year Old Pupils.
Dowrick, Nick
International Journal of Early Years Education, v1 n3 p49-60 Win 1993
Reports on a small-scale study of 13 dyads working at number tasks that found "sidework," a modified form of associative interaction, gave rise to more high order talk and to more posttest learning than did collaboration. Suggests sidework may have greater potential to enhance students' learning than the collaborative mode. (TJQ)
