Abstract

While tasks are the basic building block, teachers need to create lessons to ensure that the potential of tasks are realised, and also need to plan sequences of such lessons to build coherent learning experiences for students. The following presents some details of the development process and tasks used in one of the sequences created by project teachers. It includes information about the tasks and the instructions given to other teachers and some comments on the intent of the tasks. Some items from the suggested assessment instrument are presented as examples of the type of observation notes that were gathered.
