Learning and Transfer in Subject-Matter Learning: A Problem-Solving Model.
Voss, James F.
International Journal of Educational Research, v11 n6 p607-22 1987
The cognitive movement emphasizes perception and memory and deemphasizes learning, retention, and transfer (as in traditional associationism). A general reconceptualization of learning and retention makes these concepts subordinate to the concept of transfer and emphasizes prior knowledge, skills, and attitudes. A general information processing model of problem solving is presented. (TJH)
