Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Answer: Being unmindful of each student's previous experience in relation to the activity is not a teacher's role in facilitating meaning-making learning. Explanation: Teachers facilitate meaning-making by connecting new content to learners' prior experiences. When teachers attend to what learners already know, believe, and feel, they can design tasks, questions, and interactions that build conceptual understanding. Ignoring prior experiences prevents these connections and hinders deep learning. Create a safe environment where learners feel free to express their views, so ideas can be shared and negotiated.
