Abstract

This article argues that: (a) Teaching as telling-that fundamentally undervalues the abstractive nature of learning, and fails to empower students to construct their own ab-stractions. (b) Abstractions are contextualised stories about discovering-how. (c) Contextualised stories are communicated more faithfully through construction activities. (d)Learning conversations use teaching bottlenecks to refine our understanding of our domain of expertise, and to design construction activities for teaching.
