<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Insider, post: 8345822, member: 24314&quot;]Guys, this is too easy; yet of extreme importance.&nbsp; That&#039;s why it is so difficult.&nbsp; Keep it simple.&nbsp; Looking for one word needed to describe most things.&nbsp; These are both very good answers:</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Let&#039;s stay with the flower image.&nbsp; I&#039;m going to pull the answer out of someone.&nbsp; This description is missing <span style="color: #b30000"><b>one important thing </b></span><span style="color: #000000">that&#039;s often necessary to describe anything. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie67" alt=":nailbiting:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></span></p><p><br /></p><p>Hommer, answered: &quot;It is a flower [<span style="color: #006633"><b>DAISY</b></span>] that&#039;s center is somewhat circular and dome shaped when laid horizontal but naturally being vertical, in relief, and outward facing. A closer examination of this center shows a tightly packed texture being made up of random placed brightly colored stamen with the consistency of thickly piled soft carpet. Radiating out from the back of this center dome are petals in a inconsistent overlapping pattern spread to encompass the entire perimeter. These sixteen petals resemble the <span style="color: #0000b3"><b>shape</b> </span>of a spoon handle with eased edges and two incuse corrugation lines along the center of their entire length giving rigidity to their somewhat delicate shape and fine linen consistency. The length of the petals is approximately three to four times their width and when included with the center give the flower a radius of approximately three times the diameter of it&#039;s center.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Answer this evening and you will all <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie46" alt=":facepalm:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie20" alt=":banghead:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie20" alt=":banghead:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie20" alt=":banghead:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.</p><p><br /></p><p>PS&nbsp; Hommer has demonstrated a very good eye for detail.&nbsp; Furthermore, and not so common - he can put what he saw into words. That is a lot harder than you would think.&nbsp; That&#039;s why in class we ask students to describe in detail what the coin looks like to someone who cannot see it.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>IMO, all learning occurs in steps.&nbsp; Asking students to take <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie98" alt=":wacky:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> baby steps is NOT CONDESCENDING!&nbsp; Although, it can be demonstrated that many &quot;Ex-Perts&quot; don&#039;t understand that approach to learning.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
