	21st Century Learning Initiative

		In cognitive apprenticeship, the challenge is to present a wide range of tasks, varying from systematic to diverse, and to encourage students to reflect on and articulate the elements that are common across tasks.
		Like other exemplars of cognitive apprenticeship, their approach is designed to give students a grasp of the complex activities involved in expertise by explicit modeling of expert processes, gradually reduced support or scaffolding for students attempting to engage in the processes, and opportunities for reflection on their own and others' efforts.

	New York State Department of Labor - What is Apprentice Training? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Apprenticeship is the process of learning a skilled occupation through both on-the-job training (practical, paid experience) and learning the related technical knowledge in a classroom.
		Apprenticeship training is a method that combines actual work experience with classroom related instruction and produces a worker skilled in the occupation, who is capable of exercising independent judgement and who subscribes to the highest standards of professional conduct.
		Registration of your apprenticeship training program guarantees that your workforce will be consistently trained at the highest skill levels, that your program will be nationally recognized, and that you are entitled to the benefits of registered apprenticeship under Department of Labor laws and regulations.

	Apprenticeship - RoleModel Software, Inc
		Apprenticeship at RoleModel has been extremely successful so far, exceeding what we thought were aggressive expectations, in spite of the things we were naive about when we started.

		The second advantage apprenticeship enjoys over the classroom is the ability of the apprentice to observe the master on a regular basis [Alistair Cockburn "The costs and benefits of pair programming," particularly the section "Expert in Earshot." 2000].
