In many classrooms, we mistake noise and activity for real learning. Fast answers, lively discussions, hands waving everywhere, supplies and students all in a bunch. It looks like engagement. Every sense is amplified and overwhelmed. But often it’s superficial: the quick thinkers dominate, the quiet ones disappear, and everyone moves on before true understanding forms. |
