| Research Abstract |
A series of experiments were undertaken on upper elementary school children's comprehension activity in learning of addition/subtraction of fractions with different denominators and of animal evolution, focusing on individual comprehension, memory, and application far problem solving of salient arguments in the preceding classroom discussion. We found that the students, both vocal and silent, tended to retain fairly unit what had been discussed and what arguments had impact. Pieces of information included in those arguments were often incorporated as long as they were consistent with the students' prior knowledge and conclusion they reached after the discussion.
Another series of experiments were conducted on the dyadic arrangement of a familiar melody by female junior college students, with special attention to their deeper understanding of characteristics of the melody as well as maintenance of interpersonal relationships. The participant students often withdrew their objectively excellent and innovative ideas because they were highly sensitive to the partner's mental states. They were generally satisfied with interpersonal aspects of the joint work, but widely varied in their evaluation of task-oriented aspects, which was not correlated with the interpersonal satisfactions.
Collective comprehension activity can certainly have positive effects on both cognitive and motivational aspects, but it also has to pay its own cost.
