Peephole or Sliding Glass Door? How Big Is Your Window into Students' Thinking?

Student thinking must be used by teachers to further learning. ­­Attending, interpreting and deciding how to respond are key to equitably using student thinking to optimize instruction. Conscious decisions on tasks used to elicit this thinking are also critical. We will examine task selection and how this can widen your view of student thinking.
