We've just defined the Representation Standard in more detail. Now we'd like you to write about the standard.
Questions to write and reflect about:
- What are some guidelines for selecting and working with tasks that support the use of a variety of representations? Give examples related to your goals for the use of representation in your classroom.
- As students use representation to explore more complex mathematical concepts, what are some frequently encountered hurdles to the effective use of representations? How do you address these issues?
- How might you explain to a colleague how representations help students develop a deeper understanding of the mathematical concept(s) they are learning?
Three ways to write and reflect:
- Use pen and paper.
- Use a word processor.
- Use the form below.
Be sure to save what you have written before you navigate out of the journal section.
Thanks for writing in your journal. Please keep your entries in whatever format you choose -- you will find them useful for reference later.
