What type of transfer has Mr. Donahue led students to engage in
The type of transfer Mr. Donahue led students to engage in is: backward-reaching transfer.
Explanation:
This question refers to transfer as the ability to apply to new contexts knowledge or skills learned in another context. <u>When it comes to backward-reaching knowledge, students will think back to a previous situation to try to find the knowledge or information that will help them in this new situation.
