| RP#2 | As background
information for this reaction paper, please read the article found at http://www.math.uni.edu/134/content/teachingthinkingstrategies.html You are assigned one side of the "drill and memorize" vs "explore and investigate" debate. Last name B-G (drill)
Last name H-T (explore)
Write a
one page (no more,
size 12 (not too funky)font, double spaced, one inch margins) response
supporting your side. The idea is to think about this issue for
yourself, not summarize Rathmell's paper. Feel free to find other
sources of information but you do not need to make citations (you might
want to make a note for yourself.) Next week you
will debate this issue
with your
classmates.due Mon, 6/21 |
