The Effectiveness of Verbal Label Training in Aiding Second Grade Pupils to Transfer Their Classificatory Skill
Chiappetta, Eugene L.; Collette, Alfred T.
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 12, 2, 183-191, Apr 75
A sample of 43 second grade pupils was divided into groups which performed classificatory tasks with value labels, attribute labels, or a combination of these. Results showed that the value labeling improved the students' classificatory skills and increased the students' ability to generalize classificatory skill on far transfer tests. (MLH)
