Individual Characteristics and Children's Learning in Large-Group and Small-Group Approaches.
Janicki, Terence C.; Peterson, Penelope L.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v71 n5 p677-87 Oct 1979
Aptitude-treatment interactions in large- and small-group learning situations were investigated. Students who initially preferred small groups did worse in that approach than in the large-group approach. High- and low-ability students did better and had more positive attitudes in the small- and large-group approaches, respectively. (Author/RD)
