Brief Reports: Preteaching versus Concurrent Teaching of the Component Skills of a Multiplication Algorithm
Douglas W. Carnine · Journal for Research in Mathematics Education · 1980
Teaching the component skills that comprise a more complex skill increases the probability that the complex skill will be learned (Gagné, Mayor, Garstens, & Paradise, 1962; Gollin, Moody, & Schadler, 1974; Mayer, Stiehl, & Greeno, 1975) or that transfer will occur (Carnine, 1977; Houser & Trueblood, 1975; Jeffrey & Samuels, 1967).
