| Scaffolding technique | Used in scenario | Subject/domain |
|
| Example-based | 1. When students are new to the course and do not know much | Mathematics, physics, statistics, computer science, English, and social science |
| 2. Providing help to students stuck at a stage of course |
| 3. Learning argumentation skills |
| 4. Learning to construct concept maps |
| Using visual aids | 1. To encourage the student with attention | Basic mathematics, language’s learning, and medical science |
| 2. For enhancing the cognitive skills of the student |
| 3. Demonstrating the topic using animations and visual aids |
| Activating prior knowledge | 1. To recall knowledge about a certain topic | Mathematics, engineering science, medical science, and social science |
| 2. Preexisting knowledge acts as a foundation to learn new knowledge |
| 3. Connecting new knowledge with basic knowledge |
| Preteach vocabulary | 1. To introduce new instruction/format | Languages and computer programming languages |
| 2. To learn/use the new language |
| Breaking complex into small | 1. To solve a complex problem | Problem-solving, mathematics, and analytical |
| 2. To motivate the learner to solve and learn from small chunks of problems |
| Offering hints/partial solutions | 1. Motivate learner to proceed further rather than stuck in a problem for hours | Problem-solving subjects, computer-aided programs, and software solutions |
| 2. Helps to solve a problem |
