Learning Expectations

Many answers or the 'right' answer.

As learners, we don't always get the right answer. And this is the problem with our education systems. There is usually only one right answer to any question the teacher asks, and giving the wrong answer leads to some form of punishment. This punishment can be physical, mental or emotional. Whatever, the effects can be disturbing for both the winners and the losers. However, we'd be all better off if we were encouraged to come up with many answers and to explore the reasoning behind the different ones.
