Description

Rewind a decade or so in the classroom, the teacher would typically show the student how to do a task, watch as the teacher practices each stage, and then provide the student with more responsibility until they are proficient enough to do the task themselves. The basic concept that the teacher would show the student and help them achieve it.

Cognitive apprenticeship offers an instructional paradigm for teaching to help teachers identify the processes of the task and make them visible to students; situate abstract tasks in authentic contexts and vary the diversity of situations to help students transfer what they learn.
