Go look how education works. Engineers sitting in classes learning how the colour of the beam or framing effect or other fallacies can influence guess estimate of required thickness, OR engineers sitting in classes learning how to actually find the damn thickness?
What I am saying is that you have enough facts at your disposal and need to process them. So the answer is ‘yes’. If you absolutely insist that I link a resource that I would expect wouldn’t add any new information to the information you already didn’t process: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_education . Teaching how to do math. Not teaching ‘how framing effect influences your calculations and how you must purify your mind of it’. (Same goes for any engineering courses, take your pick. Same goes for teaching the physicists or any other scientists).
I’m not familiar with this “mainstream model”. Is there a resource that could explain this in more detail?

So am I to infer that your answer to my question is “no”?
