Productive Mistakes during Design-Based Research as Learning Sites for Prospective Teachers

• In Event: Brief Report Session: Learning From Mistakes

Description for Program

We describe experiences collaborating with prospective teachers to design instruction. During collaboration, we allowed enough autonomy for the prospective teachers to make and learn from productive mistakes. We explain how unpacking and addressing such mistakes can support mathematics teachers’ learning.
