Effects of Prereading Activities on Junior High Students' Recall.

Denner, Peter R.

Journal of Educational Research, v86 n1 p11-19 Sep-Oct 1992

This study examined the use of story impressions as a prereading writing activity. Students either received story impressions, read a story, then wrote stories using clues; received story impressions and listed predictions about a story; or received no preview activity before story reading. Story impressions produced the highest level of story recall. (SM)
