Presentations
Developing Student Thinking Through Student-Centered Discourse
In a student-centered classroom, students have frequent opportunities to wonder and make connections, share strategies, notice patterns, and justify their ideas. These opportunities support the development of student voice and choice, which are critical to learning and to positive identity development. In this session, we will explore discussion structures and scaffolds to support discourse and agency in your classroom.
