Think about the following scenario in a geography class:
- Scenario A: Students memorize the capital cities of European countries.
- Scenario B: Students locate the capital cities of European countries on a map and compare their features (number of rivers, population size, etc.)
As you watch the video, think about the following question: Which scenario represents surface (rote learning) and which one represents deep learning (understanding)? Can you think of any arguments to support your answer? Do not forget to write your argument(s) down on your reflection notebook.
