This is a clip to illustrate how clips for math class need to be captured (with a static camera, without music, etc.) and presented (without introduction from the teacher). My kids would hate this.

Where would you expect a classroom conversation to go, should there be more comments or questions other than “that’s stupid?”

Would this be the very first video segment of the year, or perhaps one near the end of the year when students are well practiced in making quality comments and questions about the video?

Dan, what math content do you expect students to notice in this clip, if any (for your intention may no necessarily be for a math classroom).

What a great clip to support your point about irresolution!
