Abstract
In a design experiment, the feedback from the teacher-implementer is crucial to the success of the innovation simply because the teacher is finally the one that brings the innovation to life in front of the students. We describe in this paper the feedback made by the teacher-implementer after teaching one cycle of the problem solving module in a mainstream school, and the modifications the researchers and the teacher-implementer have made in our design of the module to fit into the requirement of the school.
