Re: Teaching to the Correct Level of Difficulty--learning
Posted by: dc on 10/26/09
I see what you're saying I think, Jan. Let me see if I'm
getting it. You're saying that I'm missing the learning. Isn't
the learning "the mathematical equation? In other words,
defining and writing the mathematical equation? Maybe we've
been writing student friendly objectives for too long on our
white boards every day that I've gotten too far away from an
overarching concept that is for ME, rather than for the
students.
Is the objective I wrote OK for the STUDENTS? Because that's
what we're supposed to write on the board each day. A behavior
(write) and the concept to be learned (mathematical equation).
Please help me clarify this. I'm so glad to have you as a
resource and mentor for this!
