Answer 1

Answer:

B. It can be seen as overly behaviorist and does not fully account for internal cognitive processes.

• While it has cognitivist elements, its roots in behaviorism and its step-by-step nature have led to criticism that it doesn't fully capture the complex, internal nature of learning.
