Reading Comprehension (2016, background): “With respect to text-structure knowledge, instructional programs that were designed to teach students to recognize different text structures, and thus facilitate acquiring and applying text-structure knowledge during reading, showed considerable promise (Meyer et al., 2010; Williams et al., 2014).”
The Science of Reading Comprehension Instruction (2021, background): “For example, Williams et al. (2014) compared social studies instruction with or without embedded text structure instruction (with some strategy elements).”
