Answer to Question 1

Good quality instruction is like a magnet. If aimed slightly ahead of children's current level of cognitive development, it will pull them along, helping them master things they cannot learn independently.

Answer to Question 2

Self-efficacy refers to how prepared or capable one feels one is to handle a certain kind of task, such as learning a certain procedure, understanding a body of knowledge, or solving a problem.
