Instructional Tasks, Classroom Discourse, and Students' Learning in Second-Grade Arithmetic.
Hiebert, James; Wearne, Diana
American Educational Research Journal, v30 n2 p393-425 Sum 1993

Results with 6 second-grade classrooms (135 students) suggest that relationships between teaching and learning are a function of instructional environment. (SLD)
