The Strategies and Efficacy of Child versus Adult Teachers.
Ellis, Shari; Rogoff, Barbara
Child Development, v53 n3 p730-35 Jun 1982
Compares the verbal and nonverbal teaching strategies used by children and adults in two laboratory classification tasks. Results support the hypothesis that children would use more nonverbal instruction than adults and would instruct through references to specific instances rather than by providing general information relating items to each other.
