For example, it suffers from seriousclassroom-management and pedagogical drawbacks. Anyone who has ever taught a businessplanning course will readily attest that a large amount of time is often spent simply teachingstudents how to write effectively.

Lecturing has been the standard teachingapproach, and the problem-solving practice is traditionally done outside of class throughhomework assignments.
