Actual and Perceived Teacher Clarity--Relations to Student Achievement in Science.
Land, Michael L.
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, v18 n2 p139-43 Mar 1981
Subjects (N=41) were randomly assigned to one of two groups defined by the teacher's clarity in a genetics lesson: low-clarity versus high-clarity. Subjects rated lesson presentation and completed a test on content. The high-clarity group perceived lessons as significantly clearer and achieved more than the low-clarity group. (DS)
