Re:Force people to think (Score 1)

Yeah, you shouldn't give assigments/tests that the students already know how to solve or can solve with a bit of thinking. You should give them stuff they have to seek new knowledge in order to acomplish. I remember that in math I always tried to understand what was supposed to come the next year(We had the same book for three years, and yes it was 1000+ pages thick.).
To gain a little you have to work for it.
