Orli Peter

Expert InsightsPublished 1987

Drawing on sessions where three expert tutors were teaching algebra, this paper presents a model for examining the array of tutoring actions and reactions. The model is designed to provide a structure for examining some elements of the teaching process--including the instruction plan, goals related to the subject matter, goals related to the student--and some strategies for implementing them.
