Answer to #1

Guidelines for promoting transfer include the following: (1) Provide students with a variety of high-quality examples and other experiences, such as having students practice with a variety of word problems to promote problem solving, and constructing different concept maps to promote the transfer of study skills. (2) Apply content to real-world contexts whenever possible, such as having students solve percent increase and percent decrease problems with items they find in a local mall.

Answer to #2

General transfer is the ability to apply knowledge or skills learned in one context to a wide variety of different contexts. For example, general transfer would occur if playing chess helps a person learn math, since both require logic.

Answer to #3

In Maslow's hierarchy, the deficiency needs include survival, safety, belonging, and self-esteem. These needs must be met before learners will move toward self-actualization needs such as intellectual achievement and aesthetic appreciation. This suggests that learners will first react to the way their teachers treat them as human beings. The human dimension precedes the intellectual one.
