Abstract

This thesis offers a framework for identifying effective classroom materials to support student-centered learning. Based on a review of published studies on effective classroom activities, as well as theses by Louisiana Math and Science Teachers Institute (LaMSTI) graduates, we identify promising characteristics. We employed these in five lessons, refined them into questions, and offer in final form for use.
