Pictorial-Verbal and Analytic-Holistic Learning Strategies in Science Learning.

Alesandrini, Kathryn Lutz

Journal of Educational Psychology, v73 n3 p358-68 Jun 1981

This study investigated the effects of learner-generated pictures on science learning relative to both a verbal strategy and a control condition, and to determine the role of individual differences. Results revealed weak effects favoring a drawing strategy for males and females, and a holistic strategy for females only. (Author/GK)
