Schema
Schemata
(plural) are
organized patterns of thought stored in the brain stored around concepts.
Each schemata stored around a particular concept serves as a framework or script for that concept.
Schema is recalled using an active coding
technique
that facilitates expectations and predictions in our interpretations.
(Bartlett, 1932)Slide4

between
schema required for a
given text and
schema
actually possessed by the reader

Schema-Based Solutions
Help
students recognize the
schema
that they already have about the topic
of the text.
Give students the opportunity to build on their knowledge of the topic.
Help students to correct or modify existing schema on the topic which is presumed in the text.Slide10
Reading Efficiency
Two important factors attributing to reading efficiency are…
How much prior knowledge (
Schema
) the reader brings to the text.
How much the reader is
willing
to interact with and extract from the text.Slide11
Pre-Reading Routines
Pre-reading routines are tools to
“help
students improve comprehension by building bridges between existing knowledge and new
knowledge”.
(
Freebody
& Anderson, 1983
)
“enhance
anticipation, predictions, and interpretation of
discourse”.
(
Rumelhart
1980,
Widdowson
, 1983)Slide12
