Solution

The constructivist approach to teaching implies that "Scaffolded instruction supports authentic problem solving." This approach emphasizes hands-on problem solving and students constructing their own knowledge. It often involves the teacher guiding the student and providing support (or "scaffolding") as they learn and apply new concepts, gradually removing this support as the student becomes more competent and confident. This allows students to develop their understanding and skills in a structured yet flexible way, often through authentic, real-world tasks. So, the correct answer is d.
