    Conic sections help a teacher out

    I think we think we are arguing two extremes. you obviously can't do all flipped/pbl stuff that isn't practical especially because there is a final exam that requires students to answer somewhat standard questions but i mean all you need to do to make a kid think is ask them something rather...

    Conic sections help a teacher out

    Only bad teachers would "flip" the classroom in a way that makes it lazy. i think it opens up so much more opportunity for learning activities because you can raise the standard of work/make it more difficult and be there for when students ask questions. the types of questions definitely...

    Conic sections help a teacher out

    Would students care about a torch shining on a tabletop, though? I literally just have to do this for a uni assessment. I understand students taking 4unit don't exactly need extra motivation other than to get dat atar but my marking rubric says it has to be innovative, link to the history or...
