Wonderful. I am going to try this when I teach writing. There is something powerful about a wrong answer that begs us to figure out the puzzle. Asking people to find the error activates the fix it brain and then the lesson must land (my hypothesis).
Awesome, I'd love to hear how it goes! Another effective strategy - speaking purely from personal experience - is having the teacher publicly discuss a mistake you made (keeping it anonymous)...My 6th grade teacher did that and I've never forgotten that lesson. 😂 I've been so focused on math education but would really love to hear how this could be applied in a writing class.
