Breadth of training predicts breadth of transfer. That is, the more contexts in which something is learned, the more the learner creates abstract models, and the less they rely on any particular example. Learners become better at applying their knowledge to a situation they've never seen before, which is the essence of creativity. ~ David Epstein pg 77

Chapter 4: Learning, Fast and Slow
The teaching example at the beginning of chapter 4 was trying to use conceptual reasoning with her students, so that they could generalize the concept to solve other problems, she was using a DOK 4 strategy. Yet the students started to guess, and that turned the conversation into a multiple choice or DOK 1. As teachers we can do this thinking that we are actually having a productive conversation to solidify a concept, when in actuality we are the conceptual thinking that can be applied broadly and changing it into procedure, that is easily predictable but cannot be applied beyond one instance. This causes confusion for us regarding out instructional practices and why our students aren't successful when we are teaching higher order thinking.
