Exploring Reliability and Factorial Validity of Responsible Talk and its Impact on Cooperative Classrooms
The aim of this study was to validate an instrument which enables the evaluation of talk which maximizes student performance during different segments of interaction-interactivity throughout a complete learning sequence. Based on works developed by the Learning and Research Development Center of the...
