Question

When a typist changes from a conventional typewriter to a word processor, his typing schema will have to _____ to incorporate the new techniques needed for the new equipment?

Answer 1

The schema will have to accommodate to make the person more easily able to perform the new task. Accommodation allows the new information to be made a part of a schema without changing the overall concepts in the schema. The schema itself stays unchanged for the most part, but the new information is more of a "tweak" to the schema than a full-on update.
