Students should always feel free to ask for help, but it is struggle that teaches us the most. It's about attitude... *It doesn't matter how long it takes to learn something* In our culture, we value quickness. But that is a trap. The typical learning progression builds momentum: - Put 10 units of effort in, get 1 unit of results out - Put 1 in, get 1 out - Put 1 in, get 10 out There is no way to alter this sequence ;-) How many times have we given up just because things were not easy or clear at first? *That which we learn, we learn by doing* Reading about and thinking about are useful, but not nearly good enough. That is why students *must* have a project that is important to them. The project will put them into action.
