Scaffolding

This is a great technique for students that have no previous experience in the field that they are going into. It takes time for them to grasp the need for the concepts they are learning and then and only then can the actually grasp the concepts. Scaffolding gives them something to "hold on to" while going through this process.

Stephen,
Well said in terms of the value of scaffolding the instructional process. It gives the students a solid foundation and build no sequential knowledge.
