q2 · i? · review · r2

Narrative review of Titsworth and Kiewra (2004), in which half of 60 participants heard a structured audio lecture with organizational keywords and half heard the same lecture without them. The review reports the cueing benefit but prints no effect size.

"Cueing was found to have a large effect both on students’ understanding of the lecture structure, and on their memory for the details presented in the lecture."

Related Claims¶

• The quality of sixth-graders' keywords is not diagnostic of intra-individual variation in test performance (Experiment 1). — related
• The keyword-quality–JOL correlation increases after comparison with expert keywords, indicating learners exploit keyword quality as a cue only when given external standards — related
• Teachers' intra-individual monitoring accuracy of students' text-by-text learning is not better than chance and is not improved by students' keywords or summaries (Experiment 1). — related
• Generating or comparing keywords had no substantial effect on posttest learning performance — related
• Test performance differs by cue-prompt condition in Experiment 1, with higher scores in the no-cue condition than the summary condition. — related
