The Mathematical Discourse of 13-Year-Old Partnered Problem Solving and Its Relation to the Mathematics That Emerges.
Kieran, Carolyn
Educational Studies in Mathematics, v46 n1-3 p187-228 2001
Explores the co-shaping of public and private discourse and some of the circumstances under which one occasions the other in the evolution of mathematical thinking by pairs of 13-year-olds. Provides evidence that adolescents within novel problem situations can experience some difficulty in making their emergent thinking available to partners in such a way that the interaction is highly mathematically productive.
