Under Jerome Bruner's Cognitive Theory of Instruction, the concept of 'Discovery Learning'—where learners are encouraged to explore facts, formulate hypotheses, and construct knowledge themselves through their environment, data, and activities rather than being directly taught pre-established rules and principles—relates to autonomous learning, problem-solving, and higher-order cognitive abilities in classroom teaching. Which of the following psychological statements is most authentic and scientifically valid regarding its true psychological implications?

Detailed Explanation

Explanation

According to Jerome Bruner's theory of Discovery Learning, when students discover knowledge through their own curiosity and efforts, they do not remain passive recipients of information; rather, they become active constructors of knowledge.

  • Active Participation: Learners engage directly with materials, leading to deeper cognitive processing.
  • Intrinsic Motivation: Self-discovery fosters a natural drive to learn and understand.
  • Transfer of Learning: Concepts learned through discovery are better retained and easily applied to new, real-life situations.

Therefore, option (c) is the correct and scientifically valid psychological statement regarding discovery learning in child development and pedagogy.
