In college math, unresolved misconceptions seem to be the silent deal-breaker. Two questions for you: - Do you agree that this is the core problem? - Is it significant enough to focus on solving? Curious what others are seeing in their classrooms or research. 👇

The real job in teaching math isn't just explaining concepts—it's uncovering and fixing misconceptions before they snowball.

@P_A_Kirschner If then how do we reconcile with the much talked #productiveFailure by @ManuKapur24. It’s almost a decade old theory validated through many experiments.

@yanabana @a16z More power to you @yanabana. Do you have interest/perspective on Education Business (high-school + college STEM)? If yes, would you mind giving your 10 min of advice time?

@rohildev Interesting pov @rohildev. Our brains (with years of training) is geared to look for signals to establish/amplify human connection. How are you planning to avoid or leverage this insight?

@arpangup This is the cornerstone. Cognitive engagement is the string pillar of learning/performance.

@hthieblot In super early stage, business is anyway un-sexy, so pitch what will excite… educating with unsexy… is boring. @hthieblot you have nailed it.

@AmarKumarEdu @gregisenberg @AmarKumarEdu I believe, you are already empowering micro-schools! Does micro-school go up to high-school level? If yes, how is the admit perception [of micro-schooled students] by good colleges?

“How to think” should be embedded into the knowledge-chunk to-be-taught. If the thinking/processing is not happening, then learning will not happen. Exposure ≠ Learning.

As a parent, I’m happy if you just teach my kid knowledge rather than attempting to teach her how to think. She can already think, and so can all the other kids. She needs more to think with. I hope that relieves an enormous burden and opens doors for a knowledge rich education.

For example, many kids see rainbow and get amazed, but very few, go deeper just to notice that colors have an ordering pattern. As a teacher what are your strategies to engineer learning effectively?

4/ Also Curiosity is fragile. — sustained only in hope of Learning new things. — if not curated well, students loose the eye to notice and ponder on new information.

Teachers are Learning Engineers yet why they fail with students? 1/ Repetition is universal tool deployed ( by tutors/parents) to bump grades… indeed repetition is good for learning but very BAD for motivation.
