crl-16391	Ondrusek, Anita L.; Thiele, Harold E.; Yang, Changwoo	Writing Abstracts for MLIS Research Proposals Using Worked Examples: An Innovative Approach to Teaching the Elements of Research Design	2014	20	.pdf	application/pdf	8596	332	43	With worked examples, the learners start with a worked example and are introduced successively to the elements of a particular problem.34 Having MLIS students write an abstract for a research proposal meets most, if not all, of the conditions of learning in which worked examples are effective. As for the added benefits of using worked examples of abstracts in a course on research methods in an MLIS curriculum or in a continuing education setting for LIS practitioners, the authors posit that this instructional technique could be an effective means for teaching either audience to interpret research articles.	cache/crl-16391.pdf	txt/crl-16391.txt
