Answer to Question 1

This means illustrating all topics with high-quality examples and other high-quality representations of content, such as showing young children a live lizard and a live snake to illustrate the concept reptile. (2) Connect content to the real world, such as finding the longitude and latitude of the students' school, or using equivalent fractions to determine how much pizza has been eaten. (3) Make interaction an integral part of instruction, such as developing lessons with questioning and using groupwork judiciously. (4) Teach for conceptual change, such as helping students revise their knowledge constructions to eliminate misconception.
