- Admitting limits: Getting students’ help

Teacher: Despite being informed and willing to practice a better pedagogy, there is a limitation for the teacher because traditional teachers are usually left brain and verbal, linguistic so they have difficulty to reinvent themselves to fit different sensory modes and even realize the students difficulties. It is good to have students who are willing to help.

- Fostering self esteem: Attention to outcomes

  • Bad label: Peer teaching to help student's meaning making process

Student1: …I would like to be gifted like them, (50% 50%), but both tests said I am right brained.

Student 2: ...The important thing is how you use your strengths

Student 1: But they don’t have any weaknesses

Student 2: Maybe they are just average and you are genius


  • Good label: student's bias

“In this one I have this intelligence as first and in that test I have another. I guess I am good at both”
