09.06.17 Embolden Your Inner Mathematician: Elicit and use evidence of student thinking #TrinityLearns

From NCTM’s publication, Principles to Actions: Ensuring Mathematical Success for All:

Elicit and use evidence of student thinking.

Effective teaching of mathematics uses evidence of student thinking to assess progress toward mathematical understanding and to adjust instruction continually in ways that support and extend learning.
