Definition and
Background: Electronic Web
Enhanced Study Guides
Since the very beginning of teaching and learning, there has always
been instructional
materials to enhance the acquisition of knowledge. Outlines, articles, papers, summaries,
etc. have been used by teachers and students to teach and learn. These materials have
been written on rock tablets, wood tablets, parchment tablets, all
sorts of paper tablets,
finally electronic web enhanced study
guides to carry students beyond the written page.
A fundamental definition
for a web enhanced
study guide is any traditional study guide
that augments written information and/or definitions via Internet
and/or World Wide Web.
What is an Advanced Organizer? http://www.glnd.k12.va.us/resources/graphicalorganizers/
An instructional unit that is used before direct instruction, or
before a new topic; this is
sometimes called a hook, set induction, or anticipatory set which was
popularized by
David Ausubel, first in 1968
and introduced in advance of direct instruction along with
presented at a higher level of abstraction than the information
presented later. It was
designed to bridge the gap between what the learner already
knows and what the learner
needs to know thus the advance organizers does the task, through
several research studies,
to improve levels of understanding and recall.
