Question 2

Students on a math test performed well on a set of computational problems but were not able to solve word problems in which the same computational skills were required. Of the following, the most likely reason for this fact is:

a. students hadn't sufficiently rehearsed the computations to the point where they were automatic.
b. the teacher failed to provide enough drill and practice with the computational problems.
c. the algorithms for the computations were not encoded in the students' long-term memories.
d. the practice context and the problem-solving context were not similar enough to allow transfer to occur.
