Accentuate the Positive, Eliminate the Negative...?
Middlecamp, Catherine Hurt
Journal of Chemical Education, v84 n1 p31 Jan 2007

Difficulties and failures present excellent teaching opportunities and they give the students the intellectual space to consider the questions that might be personally relevant to them.
