Summary
It’s Day 12 of the Olympics so I went back to the Aquatics Center to attend Women’s 3m Springboard Diving. 28 women competed in this Qualifier where the top 18 would make the Semifinals. Yiwen Chen from China led the way with a dominant performance before a sold out crowd. The process of figuring out scoring from the judges led me to think about conceptual learning and a famous case from Japan.
