What does it mean to be scaffolded in a concept?

Scaffolding happens when you struggle with a concept and are automatically directed to a prerequisite to build foundational knowledge. If you continue to struggle, you may be scaffolded to additional prerequisites. You must complete these before returning to the original concept. 

To check if a concept is scaffolded:
  1. Open the desired course. 
  2. Go to the unit containing the concept. 
  3. Open the Unit Dashboard. 
  4. Find the concept and check its card. If it shows Scaffolded, the concept has been scaffolded. 
Note: You'll also see a notification when attempting a scaffolded concept.
