Respuesta
  • Memorize terms and definitions presented by the text.
  • Select specific aspects of incoming information to consider
  • Organize the selected information in various ways such as by sequencing, classifying, connecting, and relating to form new factual and conceptual knowledge.
  • Integrate new knowledge with prior knowledge, thus expanding the knowledge base

Pregunta 11

Pregunta
Children’s misconceptions
Respuesta
  • can be seen as necessary conceptual stepping stones on a path toward more accurate knowledge.
  • should be seen as attempts by children to make sense of the world around them.
  • build on more correct notions that coexist with the misconceptions.
  • may reflect mistaken ontological commitments which, when altered, allow the child access to other, more relevant, and already present concepts.

Pregunta 13

Pregunta
For conceptual change to occur, the teacher must do all EXCEPT:
Respuesta
