This is excellent advice. I regularly have a little rule knowledge quiz at the end of my practices, usually based on some interesting thread I read here. I will demonstrate a behavior (or a number of them), then ask my players to say whether they were legal or not. I cover both violations and fouls. They enjoy it, and it makes them better players as well.
