Third Level Prefunction (San Francisco Convention Center)

 

Lead Speaker:
Nicole Leveille Buchanan
Co-speakers:
Alyssa Fyson and Esther Hessong


Description of Presentation:

Part of the findings from a yearlong case study of a fifth-grade classroom, specific classroom social and sociomathematical norms are illustrated. The classroom expectations we discuss relate to students learning from errors as part of the “productive struggle” of learning mathematics. Implications for teachers and researchers are considered.
