The Study of Failure

"Examining coached problem-solving episodes for events that result in learning, Van Lehn et al. (2003) found that not only was successful learning of a principle (e.g., a concept, a natural law in physics) associated with events when students reached an impasse during problem solving but also that when students did not reach an impasse, learning was rare despite explicit tutor-explanations of the target principle (Kapur, Manu. “Productive Failure.” Cognition and Instruction, vol. 26, no. 3, 2008, pp. 379–425. JSTOR, www.jstor.org/stable/27739887.)."
