[note: in this work, "learners" is used to represent students, trainees, etc.] The questions and hypotheses created by learners in this activity are important because they directly influence knowledge acquisition and skill development. Also, the intellectual work required in the activity provides some foundation for continuous improvement in practices related to job applicant screening and selection.
