General principles of learning suggest that students learn better if a teacher :
Answer: C
Students learn better if the teacher first introduces the concept overall and then moves on to the intricacies of it.
Moving from the whole to the parts gives learners a big picture, an organising frame, into which details can be fitted, which makes them easier to understand and remember. It belongs with the general maxims of teaching: known to unknown, concrete to abstract, simple to complex.
The other options reverse those maxims. Introducing the symbolic form before the physical goes from abstract to concrete, starting with what is unknown before what is known reverses known to unknown, and logic before verification reverses the move from experience to reasoning.
