It's clear that you have older kids, I forgot how they write. I only gave them a few minutes to explain their choice of sports or math practice. What article did you give them to read?<br /><br />Sheesh, "I am taking my quite valuable time to respond." :)<br /><br />Right, their responses are not atypical, yet still unique to each individual. One student wrote: "...actually see a physical change in their lives." This really drives home the point about immediate feedback: we run, we feel the burn in our legs, we lift weights, our body is sore -- that's powerful physiological feedback that overrides more of the delayed intrinsic rewards of doing mathematics practice.<br /><br />Thanks so much for sharing, Patrick.<br /><br />Fawn Nguyenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03605571262680195155noreply@blogger.com
