  3. Do all my students know how to manipulate information in the form I want them to? Do all my students know how to produce information in the format I am requiring? Do all my students know how to make sense of this source of information? Transformation Scaffolding Reception Scaffolding Reception Scaffolding INPUT TRANSFORMATION PRODUCT Vygotsky: Formative Scaffolding http://edweb.sdsu.edu/webquest/tv/

  4. Reception scaffolds • given to learners to help them gather information from sources • direct attention to what is important, help them organize and record • what they perceive • e.g. interview guide, concept map, etc. • Transformation scaffolds • help learners transform information they have collected or gathered • into some other form • impose structure on the info • e.g. Venn diagram, causal loop • Production scaffolds • help learners produce something observable that conveys what they • have already learned • useful when the form of what is to be produced follows the • convention of a genre, publication, presentation format • - eg. story guide, presentation template, outline, play structure
