Resource | A Symmetry POGIL Activity for Inorganic Chemistry
The goal of this project was to create an inquiry activity to teach symmetry elements and symmetry operations in an inorganic chemistry course. Many students experience difficulty when building and mentally manipulating three-dimensional mental models from two-dimensional images, causing difficulty when learning symmetry. Process-oriented, guided-inquiry learning (POGIL) was used to structure the…

Resource | "Muddying the clear waters": Teacher's take-up of the linguistic idea of revoicing
This article examines a collaborative study group's discussions about “revoicing,” an idea from linguistics that has been identified as an important discourse strategy in the teaching of mathematics as well as other content areas. This group, made up of eight middle grades (grades 6–10) mathematics teacher-researchers (TRs), one university professor, and two graduate students in the United States…
