Running it, start to finish
- Describe your learners, the objective and what they usually struggle with.
- Check the predicted misconceptions against what you have actually observed.
- Prepare the section 7 contingencies before teaching.
What you get back
The output this produces, every time.
- Builds around the specific wrong beliefs learners arrive with rather than around a content outline.
- Makes learners commit before teaching, which is what makes a correction stick.
- Plans for the timing overruns and disengagement points rather than discovering them live.
Getting better results
Where this usually goes wrong, and how to avoid it.
- Push back on section 1. if the misconceptions do not match what you have actually seen. Your classroom experience beats a general prediction, and it improves everything downstream.
- Do not skip the confrontation. It feels like a detour from the content and it is the mechanism. Explaining over an unchallenged wrong model mostly fails.
- Use section 6 as written. Something every learner produces. Asking for questions selects for the confident, which is the opposite of what you need.
