@mathillustrated @LJ198767 @timstirrup It's not easy faking your way through an operation.

@LJ198767 @mathillustrated @timstirrup Exactly - doctors have a body of science-based knowledge that has been tested and shown to work in most cases, while continually updating their knowledge and skills as they learn more about how the body works.

@JamesAFurey What do we mean by 'expert'? I use the word 'proficient'. It takes years to become an expert in a particular field. I do agree with your take on this.

@SciInTheMaking I've been writing and re-writing my own lesson plans, 'scripts', assessments and curriculum for nearly 35 years! I was recently assigned to teach Ethics & have had to write everything from scratch - nothing provided by the school. Spend all my free time doing this!

@mikesully97 @educator4ever36 Even without a written script, after repeating the same lesson for the sixth time in four days, I've developed my own script inside my head (which improves after each repeat).

@dperkinsed Thank you. Seems quite normal to me (in the sense of great teaching). Still not sure why everyone disagrees.
