Here is the 6-page article I'd like you to read and comment on between now and Sunday:
Selter ZDM article on teaching adaptive expertise
Selter talks about teaching kids to be flexible and creative in their approach to mathematical strategies, to develop "adaptive expertise", and he gives some interesting examples and evidence.
He does refer to a group of articles that were published in the same edition of this journal -- don't worry about that part, since you don't have the other articles to look at.
Once you've read this piece, please post your commentary (about 200 words, as full of ideas as possible), and then read at least three other people's commentaries and write your responses to them (as comments on their blogs).
I hope this sparks some interesting thoughts and discussion! See you online over the weekend.
