How do teachers share and develop student ideas?

Abstract

This article aims to try out a framework describing teacher positions based on an analysis of their interactions, and through this, gather ideas for further development of the framework. This article uses shared data from TWG 19, with data from five classrooms. These were analyzed by categorizing interaction from transcripts of the data. The analysis focuses mainly on the interactions related to one position: A teacher that shares and develops student ideas. The findings illustrate how this framework can characterize and contrast these five classrooms.
