<p>Different possibilities to learn from the same task</p>

TL;DRAbstract

In this paper we focus on variation of the design and the implementation of a specific task during three mathematics lessons in the 8th grade in a learning study (Marton & Tsui, 2004; Runesson, 2008). The theme of the lesson was division, with a denominator between 0 and 1. The teachers wanted their students to understand that when dividing with a denominator less than 1, the quotient is larger than the numerator. Four teachers collaboratively planned, analyzed and revised three lessons in a cyclic process. The study shows that the implementation of the task changed between the lessons. Although the same task was used in the lessons, the way it was enacted provided different possibilities to learn.Diferentes posibilidades para aprender con una misma tareaEn este artículo nos centramos en la variación del diseño y la implementación de una tarea específica durante tres sesiones de clase de matemáticas en octavo grado en un estudio de aprendizaje (Marton y Tsui, 2004; Runesson, 2008).
