But are you taking into full account the tendency of many to "settle" for the easy way out?? They may "want to do it," but just how hard are they willing to work at it themselves, especially if the going gets slow and they have little patience for a lack of "instant gratification." There are certainly many who are equally determined to "do it on their own" who would not want to look at someone else's solution until they had exhausted their own efforts and, hopefully, reached a solution on their own.

However, consider that it is often those who are not sufficiently skilled who discover a "new" way to accomplish the solution, simply because those more "trained" tend to think there is a "correct" way to do something, and the "less skilled" simply don't know that one is not "supposed" to be able to do it the way they finally figured out how to accomplish the task.

So, I simply suggest that "hints" and "nudges" are of more assistance to such individuals at this early stage in their development. Asking them to exercise their brain with "original" though is usually of more benefit in the learning process, than asking them simply to analyze someone else��s solution to the problem. But clearly this also can be of great benefit, when one's own thought have seemed to hit a dead end or lack of inspiration. I don��t think we are really disagreeing on anything.
