ABSTRACT
The purpose of this paper is to present a selection of studies that have investigated the effect of the introduction of text revisions and the modality of presentation of the material in the comprehension of expository discourse. With this aim, we will introduce studies that have focused on the effect of the implementation of systematic text revision procedures and the design of refutation texts on the comprehension of expository texts. Next, we will introduce studies that have examined the role of presenting the same expository discourse materials in different modalities in the establishment of discourse connections. The consideration of these investigations will allow us to highlight the importance of examining how the structure of the material, the prior knowledge of the student and the modality of presentation interact in the facilitation of student learning.
