Description of Presentation:
There is much research on problem solving in mathematics education. There is much less research concerning problem posing. We share findings from 6 middle-grades classrooms on the kinds of problems students posed, the frequency with which we observed various types of problem posing, and consider circumstances that support problem posing.
Session Type: Brief Research Report
