Description

We present the results of our research on the teachers’ ability to interpret student explanations and respond to them effectively. Students were solving a non-traditional problem involving momentum and energy. Teachers took the survey that contained the text of the problem and students’ written explanations of their answer choice. Teachers were asked to comment on the student’s strengths/weaknesses, and describe their hypothetical response to the student. To analyse teachers’ responses, we used the Tasks of Teaching from the content knowledge for teaching energy (CKT-E) framework.
