Reply To: Unit 1.3d: Making Critical Discernments

[Brooke Senek]

I definitely noticed how working through the addition puzzles encouraged me to focus on the discernments as opposed to the sequence of steps and procedures. I found that this encouraged me to slow down, comprehend, practice, and then put my learning to the test. It encouraged a deeper sense of thinking and practice, as opposed to simply recalling math facts or previously learned problems/techniques.
