D
Are extrinsically motivated
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Therefore, cognitivism looks beyond observable behaviour, viewing learning as internal mental processes. In this view, learners are actively involved in the way they process information. Knowledge, memory, thinking, and problem solving are areas for development.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cognitive learning theory focuses on the internal processes surrounding information and memory. Jean Piaget founded cognitive psychology in the 1930s as a reaction to the prevalent behaviorist school of psychology. According to Piaget, a schema is the basic unit of knowledge, and schemata build up over a lifetime.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cognitivist teaching methods aim to assist students in assimilating new information to existing knowledge, and enabling them to make the appropriate modifications to their existing intellectual framework to accommodate that information.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cognitive Learning Theory, on the other hand, suggests that the learner is an active participant in the process. They come to the table with their own skills, knowledge, memories and relevant information they’ve learned in the past.

Detailed explanation-5: -According to Cognitive Behavioral Theory, a person’s thoughts, feelings, and actions impact how they learn. In other words, their thought patterns and mindset affect how they pick up and retain information.
