25- Task Design to Support English Learners’ Geometric Record Keeping

Monday, April 13, 2015: 5:45 PM-6:45 PM
Grand Ballroom C/D (Westin - Boston Waterfront)

 

Lead Speaker:
Jill Neumayer DePiper
Co-speakers:
Daniel Heck and Anthony Fernandes


Description of Presentation:

We hypothesize that record keeping supports mathematical problem solving and communication of English Learners (ELs) through cognitive off-loading of information and supports for productive struggle. Through iterative task design, interviews, and analysis, we generated and tested principles for designing tasks to promote ELs’ record keeping.
