3. USING VIDEO TO CREATE A VISION FOR POWERFUL DISCUSSION TEACHING IN SECONDARY SOCIAL STUDIES

Abstract

Teaching pre-service social studies students how to engage their future students in powerful classroom discussions is an important and challenging goal for teacher educators. This chapter presents a rationale for creating discussion-rich social studies courses, explains why it is so challenging for teacher education students to learn how to teach with discussion, and describes an approach involving videotaped discussions that helps meet those challenges.
