Coach Brown reflecting on a lesson plan that didn't work writes:
In the end, the lesson provided a decent idea of marginal analysis. But it was clear that the lesson had little flow, was veering off track on every opportunity, and became a greater bane than a benefit to class time. Was a total failure? No, not by a long shot.
