(Counter) Productive Practices for Using Student Thinking

Wednesday, September 25 - Saturday, September 28
NCTM 2024 in Chicago, Illinois

Some go-to teacher practices work well in certain situations but can actually be counterproductive in others. Learn about three such practices: collecting information from the class, asking a student to clarify their contribution, and asking students to revoice their peer's contribution, including examples of both productive and counterproductive uses of each practice. Leave with ideas for how to leverage these practices and others to nurture opportunities for students to shine.
