2007 California Mathematics Council Asilomar Conference

Mediated Learning

Kathy Davis, iMET 10

Every year, the California Mathematics Council hosts a conference during which educators can meet

and share ideas and strategies for better delivery of mathematics instruction. Teachers and administrators

from all levels of education are provided wonderful ideas and inspiration from presenters who are either other

educators or vendors with the latest technology or technique.

One of the presentations I attended was given by a middle school resource teacher who has had much

success with Mediated Learning. This is an idea which provides tools for students to be evaluated in order to

track their learning process. The teacher is a mediator, but the student is responsible for all of the learning.

This sounds obvious but generally, students don’t take responsibility for their own learning. I find the concept

of thinking about how we think or how we learn fascinating, so was pleasantly surprised that this would

actually be a presentation which might provide new strategies for this. I was not disappointed.

Research by Professor Reuven Feuerstein has developed a theory of Mediated Learning, in which a

student can overcome and work around some of the roadblocks to their obtaining knowledge. We were

provided activities and observation questions which will provide useful information to determine in step part

of the learning process our students are failing. By having students work on progressively more difficult tasks

in identifying shapes within space, the students are taught to recognize the tools they themselves collect to

solve the next, more difficult, but similar, problem.

They start to see that the first few times they saw one shape, then they saw patterns, then they looked

for the area of the shape...what was so wonderful is that the students (in our cases the teachers) all realized that

they were making new connections to problem solve and could start to identify these new connections as well.
