Mosart Tutorials

I thought that the tutorials given on the Mosart page was very interesting. I especially liked how they talked about how misconceptions of students often come from older siblings. As the youngest child in my family, I can see how this would be true. I would often look up to my brother and sister and try to copy them even though I was not as well mentally developed as they were. I think that I could use these probes in my classroom to redirect common preconceptions. The teacher in the video seemed to be very effective with her lesson and I would love to be able to teach a lesson as effectively as she had based on the students preconceptions.
