Nonlinguistic
Representations |
|
Research
& Theory:
- Dual-coding theory - knowledge is stored in two forms:
linguistic and imagery.
- Too often we
encourage only the linguistic mode in children's learning - leaving
them to make up their own images.
- When teachers help students
successfully create accurate images student achievement will
increase.
