Using Case Comparison to Support the Development of Instructional Design Problem-Solving Strategies
A popular instructional approach for developing problem-solving abilities is case-based instruction (CBI). One limitation of CBI is that problem solvers, especially novices, often fail to recall relevant cases from memory when needed. Analogical encoding is a promising approach to CBI for …
