Teacher Noticing in Various Grade Bands and Contexts: Commentary

The chapters in this section explore professional noticing in contexts that include both middle and high school preand in-service teachers. The authors employ different theoretical and conceptual frameworks, and examine the professional noticing activities of their participants using different research methodologies. To try to tie together these different intellectual contributions, we present and provide initial considerations of six overarching questions related to this important field of scholarship. The hope is that readers will also consider these questions, and will reflect on the way the authors within this section address them as we work as a field to deepen our understanding of professional noticing.
