Peer reviewedMeyer, Rochelle Wilson – Arithmetic Teacher, 1977
In teaching mathematics to preservice elementary teachers, the author presents classroom incidents for which each student must write what he or she would do in the situation. The write-ups are then discussed in small groups. This technique seems to help students apply the mathematics they are learning to the classroom. (SD)
