Resource: Schema Activation, Construction, and Application

URL: http://www.ericfacility.net/databases/ERIC_Digests/ed312611.html

Description: The ERIC Digest discusses research related to organized knowledge that is accessed during reading. The richer the schema is for a given topic the better a reader will understand the topic. Pre-reading strategies, such as the use of graphic organizers, concept maps and thematic organizers, can help students relate new information from reading to their existing knowledge.
