q2 · i? · qualitative · r?

Interaction analysis across groups showed a common pattern of overlapping student utterances the authors read as an informal and safe environment. In a low-guidance group, students built on each other without cued questions; a fourth group's teacher actively encouraged elaboration on feelings.

"the teachers adopt different levels of guidance for the students in their collaborative efforts to make sense of their experiences. How the teachers use different strategies in guiding the student talk during the dialogues is an important aspect of the students’ meaning making."
