9. Teacher’s Problem
You have complex, integrated
patterns built up over time that can
be retrieved from memory
automatically. For you, answers to
problems based on your patterns
are obvious and quick to retrieve.
10. Student’s Problem
• Something that sounds familiar
does not equal knowing
• Something memorized may not
be a pattern
• Content memorized for multiple
choice exams is not easily
accessible later
11. Teacher’s Role
• Make your thinking process
explicit (Intentional Role
Modeling)
• Help students learn to organize
content into explicit patterns.
