For those AOPS users out there I am struggling with how to handle helping in AOPS. The DD struggles with roughly 50% of the challenge problems on the HW. I am sure some of you have the same issue. How do you handle this?
1. Not help at all. If they cannot figure it out they should fail and repeat the class?
2. Provide some directional help to enable them to solve problem?
3. Sit down and help them understand how you solve such problems?
Like a lot of you I take approach 2. My concern is am I pushing the kids ahead without full comprehension
