Summary for "What-If-Not"

This strategy of WIN provides us an abilty to create a diversity of problems to involve students in learning. It also provokes our prior knowledge and brings the new information regarding the questions which we ask to students. It does have the steps or a procedure which follows the pin points of the strategy. It has its own starting point, and procedure follows through the attributes of the problem. It analyses the hypothesis of that what could happen if it is not like that. It provides us an idea to think about the other possibilty of the question. So students will apply the other aspect of the problem or theorem and understand that why it is not like that how it suppose to be. a teacher can enhance learning through asking questions and providing them problems to solve. In the end, the analysation of problem will be done.
So for our lesson plan for estimation I don't think deeply about that how can we pose or apply this strategy? But as the topic of estimation is very practical for our daily life activities, it can be easily understood through this strategy. It is assumed that our groceryy will cost around $150.00, but when we are on the counter we noticed that it way more than our estimation. Then we can retrospect and think What-If-Not. That retrospection can give you more clear picture of where your mistake is. And for each starting point you will think agian "What-If-not" again for your grocerry list. This estimation will work well with this strategy.
The best thing in this strategy is that it provides a deeper undestanding of the concept. It prospects all the horizons of an answer which are very deep and there is logic behind those answers.
The weakness of this strategy is that it is time consuming, and some time for some students it is hard to think the other side of the coin.
Overall it is informative, reasonable and logical strategy to apply for understanding and students' interaction.
