We will focus on the students’ part in the learning situation.
Many students come to a learning situation well prepared to learn.
If these students apply themselves—if they attend to the instruction
and study—they will learn.
But there are students who come to a learning situation unprepared
to learn.
No matter how much effort these students make—no matter how
hard they try—they probably will not learn.
To aid these students, we must first help them to understand why
they are not learning.
