Publisher's Synopsis
The papers contained in this volume cover the essential points of the 1989 EARLI Conference. They demonstrate a continuing increase in research on learning and instruction as new approaches to learning are constantly being developed. To study these approaches and to achieve a better understanding of traditional teaching problems, these contributions, from differing points of view and different disciplines that examine the acquisition of new knowledge, are necessary. Topics include: learning environments for special education needs, learning and instruction in specific knowledge domains, language development and learning, classroom learning processes, and multicultural learning.
