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.

These questions encourage students to open their minds, they offer opportunities to produce original thinking.

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.
