Characteristics of Effective Teaching of Eighth Grade Mathematics in Puerto Rico
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe purpose of the study was to identify teacher and student behaviors in low and high achieving eighth grade classrooms. Four classrooms were selected for the study. Two were identified as having high achieving students; two as having low achieving students. Other selection factors included socio-economic status of students and public or private status. Classes were observed during fifteen days in the spring of 1985. Data were collected using an interaction-content strategy in the form of an observational checklist with running accounts of classroom events. A tape-recorder was also used as a source of data.
