Information Processing and Visual Communication: Implications of Theory for Research.

Winn, William

This discussion of the information-processing model of learning as it relates to research in educational media traces research in conceptual organization to its beginnings in mathematical models of information-processing; addresses research hypotheses concerning structure and organization, processes and processing systems, and perceptual cues; and considers ways of describing dependent variables, manipulating independent variables, and analyzing data in information-processing research. A list of references is attached. (CHC)
