Cognitive apprenticeship and generative learning are closely linked, because the process of making cognitive processes visible means that students must create or generate things that represent those processes. Teachers must create work and tasks that represent the process of solving a problem, writing, or computation in addition to products. To examine the development of student thinking, an English teacher may ask for questions, themes, concept maps, and outlines before students begin writing. Math teachers are often notorious for telling students, "I want to see your work, not just the answer," so they can look for errors in the thinking process.
