Question

Which of the following strategies is least appropriate for far transfer? Using standardized procedures, processes, and checklists Providing a list of prompts or questions to help trigger thoughts and questions from trainees Teaching general concepts, broad principles, or key behaviors Focusing on principles that might apply to a greater set of contexts beyond those presented in the training session

Answer 1

Answer:

Using standardized procedures, processes, and checklists

Explanation:

In short, far transfer refers to transferring learning between people who have greater knowledge on a given subject, to people who have little or no knowledge on the same subject. In this type of transference, people with more knowledge use information and strategies to teach a new concept, skill, or context to people who are familiar with the same subject.

This is common when a company is training interns, for example.

During the far transfer, it is not recommended to use standardized procedures, processes and checklists, as they can confuse and take away the interest of people with little knowledge.

However, some effective strategies used for this process are:

• Providing a list of prompts or questions to help trigger thoughts and questions from trainees
• Teaching general concepts, broad principles, or key behaviors
• Focusing on principles that might apply to a greater set of contexts beyond those presented in the training session
