Common mistakes

What learners typically get wrong, and how to fix it.

  • Learners over-generalise a special case of while loops to every situation.

    Correction: Present a deliberate non-example and ask why the rule fails.

  • Students treat while loops as a rule to memorise rather than a relationship to understand.

    Correction: Anchor the rule in a visual model first, then abstract it — the model is the explanation.
