Learning from Voices in Classrooms
Kastberg, Signe E.; Otoupal-Hylton, Wendy
Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, v12 n3 p156-160 Oct 2006
In this article, the authors describe how they collaborated to learn how children in their classroom make sense of a mathematical idea. One discusses their new knowledge from the perspective of a large-group discussion, and the other discusses it from the perspective of her small-group investigation. They also discuss how this collaboration has informed their teaching and research.
