Option 4 : Cognitive apprenticeship

Interpretation Construction (Icon) Design Model: Learning in this model comprises of seven steps and start from the learner’s observation.
  • Observations: The key aspects of this model, where learners are made to observe the elements and situation related to the problem before proceeding to evolve a solution.
  • Contextualization: After observing the situation, learners try to contextualise the situation. That is, the learners relate the observed situation and elements of the problem to be solved to their previous ideas/ experiences/knowledge.
  • Cognitive Apprenticeship: Learners are encouraged to exercise their minds through different brainstorming activities by the teacher. As a teacher, you need to guide them on how to analyse and interpret the problem at this stage. You will find your students are having several alternative conceptions or misconceptions.
  • Collaboration: Learners form a group to work on the task. In the collaboration stage, learners discuss freely about their alternative conceptions/misconceptions and are able to communicate with their peers. As a teacher, your work is to guide each group and at the same time, you also act as a co-learner of each group.
  • Interpretation & Construction: The learners analyze their constructed knowledge through argumentation, discussion and validation and generate their own interpretation.
  • Multiple Interpretations: As learners have a lot of flexibility during the learning process, they are able to interpret the knowledge in different ways and different manner and form several possible interpretations of the problem situation as well as problem's solution.
  • Multiple Manifestations: The learners try to apply various interpretations one by one for the problem solution and thus acquire multiple solutions to the problem. Further, they also gain multiple manifestations of the same interpretation.

Hence, we conclude that the above statement is about cognitive apprenticeship.
