👉 Markers Math, developed by Dr. John Hattie and colleagues, is a comprehensive framework for understanding and improving mathematical learning across various contexts. It identifies specific instructional markers—observable teaching behaviors—that significantly impact students' mathematical understanding and achievement. These markers include elements like the use of mathematical language, strategic questioning, modeling problem-solving processes, providing feedback, and manipulatives. By focusing on these markers, educators can pinpoint effective teaching practices that enhance students' mathematical reasoning and problem-solving skills. The framework also emphasizes the importance of formative assessment and reflection, encouraging teachers to continuously adapt their methods based on student needs. Overall, Markers Math provides a structured approach to analyzing and enhancing math instruction to better support student learning.
