Question 2

According to the information-processing/social cognitive approach to learning, one way to help students meaningfully process information is to

a. present new information in relatively small amounts and over a reasonable period of time because of the limits of students' working memory capacity.
b. present information at a pace that will allow you to cover the entire text by the end of the school year because the acquisition of basic skills is critically necessary to learning.
c. present new information quickly because being able to automatically encode and retrieve information is critical to subsequent learning.
d. present large amounts of information over a short time span because students need exposure to as much information as possible and long-term memory has a limitless capacity.
