Are OUR STUDENTS THINKING LIKE MATHEMATICIAN?

  • Are they reasoning, making connections, applying understandings, and problem solving? 
  • Do the Performances of Understanding (i.e., the tasks) teach and assess?
  • Are there opportunities for substantive communication?
  • Is effective questioning being used to challenge and support? 
  • Is formative assessment being used effectively?
  • Is feedback moving learning forward?
  • What high impact teaching strategies are evident?
