Variability
Knowledge Refinement
Principle in Action
Desmos is a free, web-based tool that enables students to explore mathematical concepts through interactive simulations. With easy variable adjustments, teachers can easily create various example cases to illustrate one mathematical theorem. This approach encourages students to apply the same concept across different problems, reinforcing their skills and deepening their understanding.

Discuss in your team
Does your product incorporate a wide range of examples when teaching abstract concepts?
What types of variability (e.g., context, format, difficulty level) can you include to deepen learners' understanding?
How will you ensure that examples are diverse but still relevant to the core concept?
Principle Definition
Use multiple and varied examples to teach and practice the use of abstract concepts. No two situations are ever exactly the same, so you should prepare your learners to apply their knowledge in all the varied situations of life.
