I have to balance the need to address the put-down with the need to move on with instruction.]]> 2016-10-10 20:35:38 UTC https://padlet.com/sophie_korn/LCchallenges/wish/129633983 Students are not always willing to take risks and are too concerned in getting the right answer quickly. They do not always want to struggle and become discouraged. Students are usually okay with finding only one way to solve a given math problem. Also, procedural knowledge > conceptual understanding.  https://padlet.com/sophie_korn/LCchallenges/wish/129644034

Often, they let their emotions fly towards a more aggressive debate.  -Edwards]]> 2016-10-10 22:14:06 UTC https://padlet.com/sophie_korn/LCchallenges/wish/129647501 https://padlet.com/sophie_korn/LCchallenges/wish/129647585 Promoting a safe environment where students are not afraid to be themselves and make mistakes in order to take steps outside of their comfort bubble and learn new and find things.]]> 2016-10-10 22:14:57 UTC https://padlet.com/sophie_korn/LCchallenges/wish/129647585 https://padlet.com/sophie_korn/LCchallenges/wish/129647627 My challenge is guiding students who have not been a part of a positive and nurturing learning community to accept the opportunity to contribute to and be appreciated within a positive learning community.

I am also struggling with eliciting more student participation in whole group discussions. Getting those who never speak out, to find the courage and space to do so more often.
