classroom questions

Question 1 the brain..

Found:

The brain controls less than previously thought – i.e. swimerettes still moving after separation from brain. What does that say for survival instinct – is it really from the brain?

Very complex – which part is used for specific functions? It seems that we cannot over simplify the brain into sections i.e. the majority of musicians are good at math but they are creative people “what brain are they in?”

Question 2 teaching…

Found:

Important to recognize that teaching cannot be separated into boxes i.e. you are good at math therefore you are not creative – we have many musicians or architects that prove that theory incorrect.

Structured exploration is important we need a conductor to guide not to control.

Open-endedness  lends itself to growth of knowledge, leaving something open continues to generate questions – therefore learning continues.
