1. What are the elements of a good learning situation?

A good learning situation has three key elements to it.

• First it should be meaningful; it should connect to real-life situations that the student can encounter in their daily lives.
• Second, it should be open-ended; meaning there is no right or wrong answer and lends itself to various tasks.
• Finally, it should be complex; the students should be mobilizing various resources.

Also, the tasks should be varied and have different levels of complexity required to complete them.
