Resource | Designing ‘Productive Uncertainty’ into Investigations to Support Meaningful Engagement in Science Practices
We want students to engage from the earliest ages in science and engineering practices with sincere curiosity and purpose. Science investigations can be viewed as “working through uncertainty.” However, 3D instructional materials often try to support engagement in science practices by making them very explicit and scaffolding the process to make it easy to accomplish—arguably, too easy. An…

Resource | Exploring Prospective Teachers’ Ability to Generate and Analyze Evidence-based Explanatory Arguments
In this paper, using written responses of 37 PSTs preparing to teach grades 1-8 mathematics, we examined explanations they constructed to support their problem solutions and explanations they provided in support of their critiques of student-generated explanations. We also examined features of explanations on which PSTs drew in their critiques of mathematical explanations of students. Our results…
