Students' Recall from Science Text.
Finley, Fred N.
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, v20 n3 p247-59 Mar 1983
Investigated what physics students (N=38) recalled from reading text material related to energy transfer. Four different groups of students, each recalling different sets of propositions, were identified suggesting that science educators cannot assume that all students in a class will recall identical information from the assignment of a reading passage.
