If a student changes the method after every failed attempt but does not check the reason, what is the problem?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Improvement is based on guesswork
A method should be changed after examining why it failed. If the student changes techniques after every unsuccessful attempt without checking errors, understanding, time use, or conditions, each change is only a guess. Such trial and error may hide the real difficulty. Therefore, improvement should be based on evidence and reflection, not on random changes.
