Overview

This part is a simulation of engagement in video workshop, in this case using a video of teaching and learning from a fifth grade classroom where the Pool Border Problem is being discussed. Understanding the context of this video, focusing in particular ways while watching the video, and discussing focus questions after watching the video supports learning about students’ approaches and ways of reasoning and what a teacher can do to establish and maintain an environment that nurtures student reasoning practices.

Key Points

Simulating the video workshop provides an early sense of what engagement in this process will be like and the professional insight that can be gained from using video.
