Hollenbeck, Keith; Tindal, Gerald
Diagnostique, v21 n4 p37-58 Sum 1996
A study compared the performance of 21 sixth graders receiving Title I services, 13 with learning disabilities, 9 gifted students, and 58 others on a legal knowledge test after a 3-week course in a mainstream setting. The groups differed significantly on declarative knowledge tasks, but not on procedural and conditional knowledge tasks. Results support a collaborative conceptual teaching model. (CR)
