Why is this so: top-down processing: means that students begin with complex problems to solve and then work out or discover (with your guidance) the basic skills required. What is its most commonly used form: a constructivist approach to learning in which students are encouraged to discover principles for themselves. It arouses students" curiosity, motivating them to continue to work until they find answers. Students also learn independent problem solving and critical-thinking skills, because they must analyze and manipulate information. However, discovery learning can also lead to errors and wasted time. For this reason, guided discovery learning is more common than pure discovery.
