When students are subjected to material out of their sweet spot for too long the sweet spot shrinks!

If everything is either so easy it's boring or so hard they don't know where to start- that's when students learn to disengage. Younger students will be disruptive, find other things to do- older students hide it. They seem to be taking notes, following along, but they aren't really "there" -

Good educational experiences inoculate students to better thrive when they face less ideal teaching.
