Coaching
Moves that function to simply
acknowledge, agree, or show
acceptance tend to close out or shut
down an exchange and thus are not
prospective in nature (Heineke, 2013,
p. 422)
When participants in a conversation
pursue meaning making through the

prospectiveness, they set each other
up for further reflection, thinking, and
questioning, thus engaging in
collaborative knowledge building
