Question

Genevieve wants her students to learn how to read their textbooks to answer questions about the material. She has her students do an ungraded in-class activity where they read sections of the book and answer questions about what they read on an activity sheet. A few later, Genevieve assigns an activity sheet to go with her students' reading, but this time they receive a finding the answers the text. If the students do good job and earn high grades on their answers, then their performance is most likely a result of A) insight learning. B) latent learning. C) vicarious conditioning. D) a cognitive map.

Explanation / Answer

Answer: (B) Latent learning

Explanation: Latent learning is a form of cognitive learning where for example, a student learns a new concept but displays his ability when an important test is conducted.

Insight learning is a form of cognitive learning where a problem is passed and over a period of time, no progress is made until suddenly the solution is reached and the learning is 100% complete. Hence this option does not qualify for the given scenario.
