Using an Advance Organizer to Establish a Subsuming Function Concept for Facilitating Achievement in Remedial College Mathematics.
Doyle, William H.
American Educational Research Journal, v23 n3 p507-16 Fall 1986
This study sought to determine: (1) if an advance organizer could establish a function concept as a subsumer for new concepts; and (2) if an established subsumer would facilitate learning, transfer, and retention of concepts on lives and scope. Students in a remedial college mathematics class were subjects of the study. (Author/LMO)
