Multimedia Reading: Using Anchored Instruction and Video Technology in Vocabulary Lessons.
Xin, Fu; And Others
TEACHING Exceptional Children, v29 n2 p45-49 Nov-Dec 1996
This article describes video-based vocabulary lessons that were used with 10 fourth-grade students with learning disabilities. The video programs were used as an "anchor" or "situation" for creating a realistic context for learning. Vocabulary was enriched by providing contextual information, introducing new vocabulary words, reviewing target vocabulary within the video contexts, and providing multiple opportunities to practice.
