What type of prompt provides moderate guidance to help a learner complete a response?

The type of prompt that provides moderate guidance to help a learner complete a response is a partial physical prompt. This type of prompt involves providing some level of physical assistance without fully doing the task for the learner. For instance, a partial physical prompt may involve guiding a learner’s hand toward the correct action rather than fully manipulating the hand for them. This encourages the learner’s engagement and promotes independence while still offering enough support to guide them in the right direction.

In contrast, a full physical prompt would involve complete physical assistance, which may not encourage the learner's active participation or independence in completing the task. Gestural prompts provide non-physical indications, such as pointing or nodding, to indicate the correct response. Partial visual prompts involve showing a visual cue that is less direct than a full visual prompt, which would display the entire task. Therefore, the partial physical prompt strikes the right balance of providing assistance while still encouraging learner engagement and promoting skill acquisition.
