For
transfer to take place in reading, for example, it is essential for us to be
able to clearly see that the reading task we’re doing today shares similar
features with a previous task which we successfully carried out in the past,
so that we can proceed by analogy. Of course it is also essential that we
clearly see the elements of difference between tasks. So, for transfer to
take place, we should be in a position to answer questions like, How is
this task similar to others I’ve already done? How is it different?
