Between-group movement refers to a pedagogical strategy wherein teachers allow groups to physically move within the classroom while problem-solving to discuss strategies, ask for help, or check their work with other groups. Exploring both the affordances and limitations of between-group movement, we found that between-group movement supported groups to construct viable justifications, among other sense-making mathematical practices. However, we also found that some groups over-scaffolded during between-group conversations which disincentivized meaningful engagement in mathematical practices. Furthermore, between-group movement revealed some equity concerns in relation to status-based privileges. The findings imply that between-group movement can be a constructive pedagogical practice under specific conditions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47481,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mathematical Behavior","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50182193","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As teachers attempt to support students in developing these practices, they communicate subtle messages about their nature. However, researchers lack a detailed understanding of the classroom interactions that communicate these messages. To begin to address this gap in the literature, we investigated the relationship between the types of classroom interactions around the mathematical practice of imposing structure and the ways students subsequently engaged in that practice. This led to the identification of three types of classroom interactions that shaped the nature of students’ appropriation of imposing structure: (a) engaging students in the practice, (b) providing different representations of the practice, and (c) reflecting on different instantiations of the practice. Our examination of the nature of these interactions suggests teachers must attend to details as they support students to appropriate mathematical practices in formal learning environments.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47481,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mathematical Behavior","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50182192","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Findings revealed teachers rarely used person-based praise (e.g., “you’re smart”) and frequently gave generic praise (e.g., “good”). Each teacher’s praise patterns supported different co-constructions of mathematical competence. Although some teachers taught the same lessons or ascribed to similar pedagogical approaches, findings suggest teachers’ praise patterns may contribute to the co-construction of different normative identities, some more exclusive and others more inclusive.

While we know a lot from past studies about predictable ways students may reason with well-known tasks, developing a diagnostic assessment that can be used by teachers to inform instruction demands the use of familiar and unfamiliar contexts. This paper presents the current work of a research team whose aim is to create a formative concept inventory with strong evidence of validity that uses a psychometric model to confidently predict whether a student exhibits one or more misconception across many items. We illustrate this process in this paper using a particular item with a context of a raffle aimed to measure whether a student reasons with misconceptions related to independence or equiprobability. The results of two aspects of the validity process: cognitive interviews to assess response processes on individual items, and a large-scale administration to examine internal structure of the concept inventory revealed difficulties in assessing students’ reasoning about these key probability concepts and trends in the prevalence of misconceptions across grades. Results can provide guidance for others aiming to develop assessments in mathematics education and also support further possibilities for research into understanding students’ reasoning about independence and sample space.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47481,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mathematical Behavior","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50182310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
