John Bransford

How people learn science. Learning science and science learning.

Implicit, informal & formal.
Structure of schools.
Distributed expertise.
Test how schematized your knowledge is.
Schema acquisition, testing efficiency.
Functional fixedness, tyranny of success.
Ability to let go of assumptions, innovation
Making thinking visible
Challenge based approach, increased discussion, interaction, enjoyment
Adams, designing engineering curriculum, design studies, grad students
increased questions
