TLDR
In this paper, the effects of asking students questions at different levels of cognitive complexity during learning were discussed, and it was shown that higher level questions can have facilitative effects on both reproductive and productive knowledge.Abstract:
The paper is concerned with the effects of asking students questions at different levels of cognitive complexity during learning. The first section reviewed research on levels of questions. It was shown that higher level questions can have facilitative effects on both reproductive and productive knowledge, but that the conditions under which such facilitation occurs are not well understood. The second section outlines an information processing model of human cognition that can account for question level effects and that serves to integrate previous research on question level and to provide direction for future research in this area.read more

Understanding Tutor Learning: Knowledge-Building and Knowledge-Telling in Peer Tutors’ Explanations and Questions:
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined two tutoring activities that are commonly hypothesized to support tutor learning: explaining and questioning, and found that they tend to exhibit a pervasive knowledge-telling bias.

Clickers in college classrooms: Fostering learning with questioning methods in large lecture classes

TL;DR: This article used a personal response system (or clickers) to promote student-instructor interaction in a large lecture class and found that the clicker treatment produced a gain of approximately 1/3 of a grade point over the no-clicker and control groups, which did not differ significantly from each other.

Designing Systems that Train Learning Ability: From Theory to Practice
Sharon J. Derry,Debra A. Murphy +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that the improvement of learning ability necessitates development not only of specific learning skills, which we know how to teach, but also an executive control mechanism that automatically accesses and combines learning skills whenever they are needed, and that genuine improvement of academic aptitude is not likely to result from anything less than a thoughtful, systematic curriculum that complements direct training in learning strategies, and thereby engineers the gradual evolution of impo...

Writing and Reasoning
TL;DR: For instance, Boyer et al. as mentioned in this paper reviewed the role of writing in the development of higher-order intellectual skills in American schools and found that good writing and careful thinking go hand in hand.

Levels of processing: A framework for memory research
TL;DR: This paper reviewed the evidence for multistore theories of memory and pointed out some difficulties with the approach and proposed an alternative framework for human memory research in terms of depth or levels of processing.

A spreading-activation theory of semantic processing
TL;DR: The present paper shows how the extended theory can account for results of several production experiments by Loftus, Juola and Atkinson's multiple-category experiment, Conrad's sentence-verification experiments, and several categorization experiments on the effect of semantic relatedness and typicality by Holyoak and Glass, Rips, Shoben, and Smith, and Rosch.

Controlled and automatic human information processing: II. Perceptual learning, automatic attending and a general theory.
TL;DR: Tested the 2-process theory of detection, search, and attention presented by the current authors (1977) in a series of experiments and demonstrated the qualitative difference between 2 modes of information processing: automatic detection and controlled search.
