Focusing on classroom interaction during designerly activity in a secondary design and technology classroom

This paper explores ways in which data collected during designerly activity in a Secondary Design and Technology Classroom can be analysed with a view to ascertaining the features of the ‘learning conversations’ (Hamilton, 2003) which facilitate the development of designerly activity in ‘fledgling d...

description This paper explores ways in which data collected during designerly activity in a Secondary Design and Technology Classroom can be analysed with a view to ascertaining the features of the ‘learning conversations’ (Hamilton, 2003) which facilitate the development of designerly activity in ‘fledgling designers’ (Trebell, 2007). It is anticipated that open questions and other forms of interactive challenge will support this development.
