**13. Encourage independent learning**

For learners to develop independent skills of learning, explicit support by teachers is required. Scaffolding is used to design a practice that is guided, with support being withdrawn gradually as learners get more proficient. This enables learners to develop strategies and skills before they the learners can practice the learning strategies and skills independently. For learners to accurately judge how they are learning effectively, they require effective feedback on time and learning strategies [4, 9]
