Retention of the Science Processes of Observation and Comparison in Junior High School Students
Tomera, Audrey N.
Science Education, 58, 2, 185-193, Apr-Jun 74
Investigated was the retention of the skills of observation and comparison in junior high school students in a rural junior high school and an urban setting. Data obtained showed a consistently high degree of retention for both skills (although degree of retention was higher for observation than for comparison skills) regardless of treatment administered. (See SE 511 539 for additional information on this study.) (PEB)
