Justifying and reconstructing in the generalizing process: The case of Jolene
Page: 1248
This poster shares a case of reconstructive generalizing. Specifically, Jolene’s response to a reconstruction task is presented as an illustration of an approach to reconstructive generalizing. Given a generalization and a request to develop a new generalization about an expanded domain, Jolene developed a justification for the given generalization and used that justification to scaffold her reasoning toward a reconstructed claim.
