Title: Climbing out of the pit.
Authors: O'Connell, Alex
Source: Mathematics Teaching. Dec2017, Issue 259, p24-27. 4p.
Subject Terms: *Mathematical models of learning, *Mathematical ability testing, *Student response systems, *Mathematics education, *Teenagers, *Secondary education
Abstract: The article looks into how the learning-pit model has helped encourage deeper mathematical understanding in the classroom. It mentions the lack of strategy and resourcefulness developed in students as the limitation of the model. It outlines the main features of the alternative approach to the approach developed by Alan Wigley, including presentation of a challenging context or problem, established and shared student responses, and the application of strategies to a variety of problems.
