Flowers, Claudia P.; Hancock, Dawson R.; Joyner, Rowanne E.
Journal of Research and Development in Education, v33 n3 p187-94 Spr 2000
Investigated the impact of teachers' instructional strategies (direct or non-direct) and college students' conceptual levels (high or low) on students' achievement and motivation to learn. Students in the nondirect instruction group, regardless of conceptual level, were more motivated than students in the direct instruction group. Overall, high conceptual-level students demonstrated higher achievement than low conceptual-level students. (SM)
