Very interesting. What math and science concepts are you trying to convey to your students? What types of examples do you use? Please tell us more.
As a high school science and math teacher, we work to teach these ideas to our young thinkers every year. A lot of bright kids struggle with it. This group might be interested to hear that navigation examples are often the easiest for my students to understand and I use them all the time.
