  1. Teaching and Learning Concepts A pretest and consideration of research into the use of concepts. What do students learn?

  2. A TRUE FALSE CONCEPT TEST • Concept density is more important than word length when considering a book’s readability level. • Although concepts appear in many different forms, all of them are basically alike. • Every discipline of the social sciences is built around concepts. • It is the subject matter to which a concept belongs that makes it easy or difficult to learn. • Learning about what a concept is not helps us to learn what it is.

  3. A TRUE FALSE CONCEPT TEST • The longer a concept name is, the more difficult the concept is to learn. • Unless you can explain what a concept is in your own words, you have not really learned it. • Subject matter to teach a concept is presented in the same way as that for other objectives. • The more information a student has about a concept, the easier it will be to learn it. • Learning a concept occurs in the same way as learning a fact.
