Abstract

This article argues that: (a) Teaching astelling-that funda-mentally undervalues the abstractive nature of learning,and fails to empower students to construct their own ab-stractions. (b) Abstractions are contextualised stories aboutdiscovering-how. (c) Contextualised stories are commu-nicated more faithfully throughconstruction activities. (d)Learning conversations use teaching bottlenecks to refineour understanding of our domain of expertise, and to de-sign construction activities for teaching.
