Description of Presentation:

In this study, we use a new analysis tool, Epistemic Network Analysis (Shaffer et al., 2009) to demonstrate and highlight connections among knowledge resources that middle school mathematics teachers evoke while relating fractions and ratios. Patterns emerged in the connections of teachers’ knowledge resources that were used to group the teachers.
