Facilitating Productive Student Discussions
Abstract: Student social interactions and discussions have the potential to be a powerful support for students' mathematical learning, but the benefits are not automatic—group work and social interactions can also create distractions, stress, and even conflict. We will draw on research and our own experiences as students and instructors to brainstorm and discuss ways to facilitate productive discussions between students.
