Paper Abstract:
|
The process of teaching can be divided into at least three subprocesses: the subprocess of deciding to teach, the
subprocess of constructing a mental model of the knowledge of the learner(s), and the subprocess of constructing a model
about how to teach. The most important subprocess is the construction of a model about the knowledge of the students.
As teaching has to take into account the prior knowledge of the students in order to make them learn, teachers have to
construct models about their knowledge continuously during the entire teaching process. But what aspects influence the
construction of these models when there is more than one student? Hypotheses can be derived from social psychology. |
