This scaffold address the importance of academic language, which is so important that experts assert that the warehouse of words a person has stored away is directly connected to their quality of thinking: higher quality of words equals higher quality of thinking.** In this age of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the quality of thinking our students reach in our classes, will be the difference between being qualified for jobs that technology is (still) not capable of performing, and watching the world from the sidelines.

Scaffolding by Enriching the Sequencing Dynamic (Higher Education)
Knowing the sequence of events in a text, story, video, laboratory experiment, sports competition, musical composition, preparation of art materials, etc. is an essential skill for students. This is an integral part of Pre-school and Lower-Primary school lessons, but it is often forgotten in higher grades. We need to intentionally give our students the opportunities to be able to recognise and express sequences, and we need to provide the phrases they can use to clarify the ordering of events.

Scaffolding Academic Language – through errors (higher education)
The brain sparks and grows when we make mistakes – even if we are not aware of it – because it is a time of struggle; the brain is challenged, and so this is when it grows the most.* Errors need to be celebrated in our classroom; we need to help our students to embrace the effort they make in their studies and focus on mistakes and successes alike, and not only the outcomes.

Scaffolding space & space exploration (higher education)
Let’s help students to consider the original motives behind space exploration – controlling direction and purpose of what is possible in space in the future. How important is that goal and is inner exploration more meaningful?

Scaffolding Visual Information in Strips (Higher Education)
When we add strategies in activities that promote critical thinking, collaboration, negotiation and prediction – all through visual means – we’ve created a powerful means of presenting new ideas to our students. This scaffold technique also includes categorisation which, according to Morton Hunt*, one of the pioneers of the study of the mind, has been proven to yield educational efficiency and helps the brain process information more fluidly.
