Peer reviewedMayer, Richard E. – Instructional Science, 1977
The review demonstrates that studies of the role of instructional sequencing provide an important test of the assimilation-to-schema theory, and that many apparent inconsistencies in the literature may be better understood by an analysis of the internal assimilation process. (Author)

Peer reviewedTobias, Sigmund; Duchastel, Phillipe C. – Instructional Science, 1974
An experiment in which findings indicate that expected interactions among objectives, sequence, and anxiety were not significant. (Author/HB)

Peer reviewedSeidel, Robert J.; And Others – Instructional Science, 1978
This study was designed to test effects of a specified degree of learner control over the sequencing of instructional materials in a self contained tutorial CAI course in COBOL programming. Findings describe contributions and interactions of learner controlled variables with respect to instructional effectiveness and efficiency. (RAO)

Peer reviewedNesbit, John C.; Hunka, Steve – Instructional Science, 1987
Proposes a criterion for selecting a sequence of objectives from a learning hierarchy and describes a sequence generating algorithm which is designed to generate a minimal memory load sequence from a learning tree. Its effectiveness in generating low memory load sequences from hierarchies that are not trees is also discussed. (RP)

Peer reviewedTillema, H. – Instructional Science, 1983
A study of variations in pupils' prior knowledge for their influence on the sequencing mode of text presentation found prior knowledge reduced the effect of size of sequencing procedures. A second experiment comparing performance of pupils with low prior knowledge level using websequence and linear sequence found webteaching was superior.…

Peer reviewedKember, David – Instructional Science, 1991
Examines existing research and instructional design theories for guidelines that encourage a deep approach to learning, i.e., meaningful learning, critical thinking, or independent learning. Highlights include sequencing strategies and elaboration theory, linking concepts, student misconceptions, changing the attitudes of teachers, and projects…

Peer reviewedRanzijn, Frederik J. A. – Instructional Science, 1992
Describes two experiments in Dutch secondary schools that were carried out to study the effect of the sequencing of the information in computer-assisted instructional programs. Instructional design for concept learning is discussed; successive and coordinate relationships between concepts are explained; and tests designed for procedural and…
