Over the past week, Walter has been trying to learn to tie his shoelaces. Initially, his mother held his hands and worked his fingers through the process. Now that Walter is better at it, she only guides him verbally. Which of the following is this an example of ?
(A) How heredity shapes cognitive development
(B) Intuitive reasoning
(C) Scaffolding
(D) Conservation

Respuesta :

Answer:

(C) Scaffolding

Explanation:

The concept of scaffolding in social psychology is the induction of learning in a collaborative manner through the interaction between an adult and a child, in which the adult will progressively give the child control of the task until he or she has gained autonomy. The case of tying the shoelaces is an example. At first the mother shows her son how to do it. In a second moment, she will encourage you to do so and will intervene by helping. In a third moment, she will monitor until he has the ability to do it himself.
