dc.description.abstractCurriculum development in the Caribbean has been based mainly on a Piagetian rationale, the emphasis being on the need to match the cognitive demands of a programme with the intellectual development of the students. This paper describes two research frameworks in cognitive psychology--the levels of processing model and schema theory--with implications for science education research and focuses on "elaborating" as an effective information processing strategy. The findings of a study of the elaborative activities of some secondary school students in Trinidad are presented
