Advance Organizers and Study Questions.
Snapp, Jim C.; Glover, John A.
Journal of Educational Research, v83 n5 p266-71 May-Jun 1990
Middle school students (N=35) who read and paraphrased an advance organizer prior to study, correctly answered significantly more lower-order study questions than did students not encountering the organizer. Middle school (N=26) and college (N=30) students who read and paraphrased the advance organizer constructed significantly better answers for higher-order study questions. (Author/IAH)
