An experiment in the teaching of biology to slow learners in high school

Creator:: Kellough, Richard D. (Richard Dean)
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to test in practice the perceptual field approach learning theory with students identified as slow learners. The essential aim was to achieve significant improvement in the self adjustment of the students while not inhibiting their learning of biology. The approaches and techniques of perceptual...
