Abstract	The idea that children develop their own alternative conceptions of mechanical principles that can interfere with their learning of school physics is well recognized, and not only within the physics education community. "Intuitive physics" is one of three domains of "folk" science commonly acknowledged--the others being folk biology and folk psychology. In this article, the author discusses how folk pedagogy is often heard a lot in education. In everyday life, teaching is often discussed as a process of transferring knowledge into the minds of students. Here, the author discusses how this notion is dangerous to student learning. (ERIC).
