@BenRogersEdu @adamboxer1 @mrbartonmaths @ollie_lovell @chemDrK @willrich45 Particularly when they are a large number of possible initial problem states to memorize and recognize.

[William Anderson @LeadingtheClass]

Should the goal of instruction be to teach students to solve like experts or to explicitly help them solve problems successfully using novice techniques? @adamboxer1 @mrbartonmaths @ollie_lovell @chemDrK @willrich45 @BenRogersEdu

[William Anderson @LeadingtheClass]

@BenRogersEdu @adamboxer1 @mrbartonmaths @ollie_lovell @chemDrK @willrich45 I am thinking about the challenge of enough practice for students to recognize the deep structure of the problem and recall the necessary solution steps to take vs. applying a novice means-end strategy.

@adamboxer1 @mikehobbiss @bennewmark @Mr_Raichura @adamboxer1 you can use @reminderpls to schedule a reminder.

@MrTaylorMaths2 @adamboxer1 @EmathsUK There are many relationships in math that are not linear or directly proportional. Likewise in science there are many relationships that are linear. In both subjects curved and straight trendlines are needed.

@oldandrewuk Gonna have to go search your previous tweets for these comments’ context. But I 100% support what you are saying in this thread.

[William Anderson @LeadingtheClass]

@ianbearden @achmorrison Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I haven’t thought hard about this application of the label, law, so I appreciate your comments.

[William Anderson @LeadingtheClass]

@ianbearden @achmorrison So would you argue that Ohm’s law should not be a law? It seems to me that these are similar in the sense of only applying to specific materials and ranges of motion/voltage.

[William Anderson @LeadingtheClass]

@achmorrison @ianbearden Would you argue similarly against Ohm’s law?

[William Anderson @LeadingtheClass]

@ianbearden @achmorrison I am confused. Can you explain why it shouldn’t be called a law?

[William Anderson @LeadingtheClass]

Teachers: Staring at a grid of black squares with white names in Zoom is starting to get to me. What are you doing about this? Require students to use a photo? Bitmoji? Other ideas?

[William Anderson @LeadingtheClass]

@edmunds_dr I should also add: I love this resource idea! Would need to modify for the specifics of my course, but it’s a great template to work from!

[William Anderson @LeadingtheClass]

@edmunds_dr Typo in left side instructions: “Repeat this unit you” should read “Repeat this until you”

[William Anderson @LeadingtheClass]

@ModestTeacher I needed to hear that.

@andrewmoo22 Maybe I misunderstood your reply. But you did originally ask why it was necessary to have two rather than one box.

[William Anderson @LeadingtheClass]

@MrJoeMilliano This is a great question set. I initially began considering how the up and down forces on each box separately with be balanced or unbalanced which led me to unequal forces between boxes. Then I recalled the 3rd law. Great question to reinforce Newton’s 3rd!

[William Anderson @LeadingtheClass]

@GowagsKyle @alicekeeler That’s an interesting paragraph, but what is the graph showing? There are no labels on the axes?

[Blake Harvard @effortfuleduktr]

What if I told you I lecture because it’s student centered?
