Variations in Students' Approaches to Studying.
Morgan, Alistair; And Others
British Journal of Educational Technology, v13 n2 p105-13 May 1982
Describes an investigation of student approaches to study and briefly relates the results to the need for instructional improvement. Open University students in England were interviewed to determine their study habits and two approaches were identified: deep-level (relating ideas and constructing meaning from learning materials) and surface-level (memorizing details).
