Abstract Details

2002, MEd, University of Cincinnati, Education : Curriculum and Instruction.
This study analyzes the relationship between an eighth grade teacher’s questioning techniques between two classes of differing mathematical achievement. One class was an algebra class and the other a pre-algebra class. An observation instrument was created and used to evaluate eight characteristics of each question asked by the teacher. This instrument was used during two months of observations in both classes. When the results were compiled and analyzed, discrepancies were discovered in some of the question’s characteristics. The findings imply that subconscious differences in teaching style might exist when dealing with middle school students on different mathematics tracks.
