Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. age appropriate for the child
1. Cognitive validity concerns the learner (the child) and what the child can grasp.
2. It requires content, process, language and pedagogy to be age appropriate and within cognitive reach.
3. Identical content for all classes or university level content ignores the child's stage, so those options fail.
