   Invisible Transfer: An Unexpected Finding in the Pursuit of Transfer ↗
   Danica L. Schieber
   Abstract

   Much research shows that students do not transfer learning well from one class to the next. This study was designed to investigate if students were transferring rhetorical strategies from their disciplinary courses to advanced writing courses. The findings suggest that business majors not only transferred rhetorical knowledge from their other courses, but they did so in a way that is invisible to both themselves and their own writing instructors.
