⚡️ Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
summary
Three concrete teaching lessons: students seen only 4–20 minutes a week improve if practice targets mistakes but hours of blind repetition produce no progress; cultivate self-criticism by reviewing code as if you were a teammate and listening for errors; map problems to multiple levels of understanding (syntax, paradigm, design) and deliberately relearn a skill that has become second nature—example: 30 years of reading music makes pitch obvious but rhythm still needs explicit practice.
