What does Transfer signify in education?

  1. Level of development right above the student's present level

  2. Support for learning and problem-solving

  3. Making real-world connections of content and skills

  4. Inner speech that guides thinking and actions

The correct answer is: Making real-world connections of content and skills

Transfer in education refers to making real-world connections of content and skills. This means applying what is learned in the classroom to real-life situations. Option A refers to the zone of proximal development, which describes the difference between what a student can do independently and what they can do with support. This is not the definition of transfer. Option B focuses on support for learning, but does not mention making connections to the real world. Option D describes inner speech, also known as private speech, which is an individual's self-talk. This is not related to transfer in education. As such, option C is the correct response.
