Notes
In particular, Noddings is referring to (e.g.) the unacceptable pain caused by teachers who ridicule students for being wrong. At the same time, she makes clear that it is inevitable, and even desirable, that students at times will be wrong, confused or puzzled in classroom learning environments. (See Noddings, 2003, p. 244f).
