Practice Reflection – Daniela

In the article ” Schools are killing curiosity “, Wendy Berliner includes the perspective of Paul Howard Jones, professor of neuroscience and education at Bristol university. He explains that ” Humans learn from novelty situations and curiosity is important to that process. ” I agree with this statement. It definitely shows why curiosity is important to the learning process, and recognizes how detrimental it could be for younger children to not have that creative outlet. Instead of their questions being discouraged and seen as a disruptive, they should be enhanced and encouraged.
