文摘This study reports how an expert Chinese teacher implements mathematics textbook lessons in enacted instruction.Our video analysis indicates that both textbook and enacted teaching included only one worked example;however,the teacher engaged students in unpacking the example in great depth.Both the textbook and the enacted teaching showed“concreteness fading”in students’use of representations.However,the Chinese teacher incorporated students’self-generated representations and facilitated students’active modeling of quantitative relationships.Finally,the Chinese teacher asked a greater number of deep questions than were suggested by the textbook.These deep questions often occurred as clusters of follow-up questions that were either concept-specific or promoted comparisons which facilitated connection-making between multiple representations and solutions.
