Question 2

Mr. Andriesse chose to teach the concepts metaphor and simile together. Based on research examining effective ways of teaching concepts, which of the following is the most likely reason that he would choose to teach the concepts together?
 
  a. Since simile and metaphor are closely related, examples of one could serve as nonexamples for the other.
  b. Teaching the concepts together would provide less for Mr. Andriesse to remember, so teaching them together would be less likely to overload his working memory.
  c. Teaching the concepts together would help him capitalize on the process of generalization; reinforcing the students for correctly identifying similes would also reinforce them for correctly identifying metaphors.
  d. Teaching the concepts together would make it more efficient for Mr. Andriesse to model correct classifications of the concepts.
