Abstract
Two types of elaboration are reviewed as potent strategies for the learning disabled and for poor child learners in general. Both elaborative strategy teaching and elaborate materials modifications are discussed. In addition, a model of autonomous and flexible strategy use is presented with an emphasis on how strategy instruction can be conducted to promote efficient strategy application.Keywords
