Context-Dependent “Upper Anchors” for Learning Progressions

TL;DR: The authors argue for a shift from the predominant model of the upper anchor as the fixed, sophisticated way of thinking toward a more expansive "upper reach" that acknowledges plurality and context-dependence in ways of knowing.

Progresiones de aprendizaje: Promesa y potencial

TL;DR: Learning progressions are models that describe how students’ understanding of central concepts or ideas becomes more sophis-ticated over time as mentioned in this paper. But only a few learning progressions have been developed and validated in critical science areas.
