The Importance of Fluency Building in Acquisition Instruction
I'm not saying don't give kids challenging problem types, they've never encountered and allow a process of inquiry. That's actually okay with me. I think the mistake is when you use that in acquisition instruction, it's not appropriate in acquisition instruction. And this is what teachers don't have good systems to pay attention to because it's not like it's that difficult. But those particular activities, let's say productive struggle as a controversial example, I don't think it's that it works or not. I think it works when does it work under what conditions can it work? And my answer to that is when children are in the generalization and adaptation stage of learning.
