Orchestrating Discourse
==============================
This edition of Michigan Gateways offers a look at how teachers
orchestrate the kind of discourse that is high on the agenda for
mathematics and science education today.
GATEWAYS REPORT
Our report for this program includes a review of what the major
reform documents say about discourse, along with comments from
NSTA President Marvin Druger, Alba Thompson of San Diego State
University, and others.
WHAT THE RESEARCH SAYS
A brief look at some of the recent research related to classroom
discourse.
FOR DISCUSSION...

teacher of a multi-age class at Lansing Christian School in
Lansing, Michigan, discuss how they orchestrate discourse in their
classrooms.
SPOTLIGHT
