Reflection: Effective teaching is characterized by the thoughtful design of learning tasks that have these features:

• The tasks require and instill deep thinking.

• They immerse the student in disciplinary inquiry.

• They are connected to the world outside the classroom.

• They have intellectual rigour.

• They involve substantive conversation.
