Vrikki, Maria; Kershner, Ruth; Calcagni, Elisa; Hennessy, Sara; Lee, Lisa; Hernández, Flora; Estrada, Nube; Ahmed, Farah – International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 2019
In this paper we examine two systematic observation methods intended to be used by pre-service and in-service teachers to help increase their awareness of children's participation in productive classroom dialogue. We identify the affordances of these methods for supporting teachers' reflective practice, focusing in this case on students' equitable…

Reinholz, Daniel L.; Shah, Niral – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2018
Equity in mathematics classroom discourse is a pressing concern, but analyzing issues of equity using observational tools remains a challenge. In this article, we propose equity analytics as a quantitative approach to analyzing aspects of equity and inequity in classrooms. We introduce a classroom observation tool that focuses on relatively…

A large study of classrooms in the Caribbean context necessitated the use of a validated classroom observation tool. In practice, the paper-version Stalling's instrument (Stallings & Kaskowitz 1974) presented specific challenges with respect to (a) facile data collection and (b) qualitative observations of classrooms. In response to these…
