The Challenges of Teaching Good Information Processing to Learning Disabled Students.
Borkowski, John G.; And Others
International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, v36 n3 p169-85 1989
A literature-based model of good information processing is sketched describing how metacognitive knowledge influences strategy selection and use. Three problems for learning-disabled students in using study strategies productively are discussed: neurological impairments; deficiencies in general world knowledge; and negative beliefs, attitudes, and styles that limit self-efficacy.
